I have some bittersweet news -- I decided to leave Deno. Going to be joining a really cool company, continuing to work in Rust.
Deno was a great place to work, full of really smart folks. I got to work on some great projects: rewriting the HTTP server to nearly 2x throughput, some major refactoring of the event loop and timers to make them an order of magnitude faster, working on rebuilding the V8 -> Rust interface to make it as fast as humanly possible...
... while also improving the developer experience with better errors.
Too many fun projects to count!
I still think #Deno is the best choice for server-side JS and #typescript, robust command-line tools and many other places. It's so much better than everything else.
Looking forward to announcing the new role in the near future and continuing to work in the high-performance #Rust arena. 🚀
