From Node.js to Deno: How It All Began — A brief nine minute documentary exploring the origins of Deno with Ryan Dahl and Bert Belder. A good, quick way to get up to speed with the motivations behind the alternative JavaScript runtime.

PGlite is a WASM (Webassembly) based TypeScript/JavaScript client library which helps to run PostgreSQL locally in Browser or in NodeJS / Bun. It does not include any dependencies. It is very light weight and it's size is 3 MB Gzipped. It supports many Postgres extensions like pgvector, live queries, bloom, btree, earthdistance, fuzzymatch and lot morebun.

To update a document in MongoDB, I used to fetch it, update the values, and save back the entry. I would question the need for an update method. Looking back, it's evident that performance optimizations were hardly a concern when working on a personal project.

Bun hype. How we learned nothing from Yarn 

1. .NET has better Performance 
2. Node.js requires to mix & match languages to compensate for performance 
3. C# is an amazing language 
4. Best tooling available 
5. Easier built-in development loop 
6. Stable ecosystem 
7. Compliance, privacy, and security 

.NET 7 is about 11x faster than NodeJs. 

Fast and simple Node.js version manager, built in Rust

Cross-platform support (macOS, Windows, Linux)

Single file, easy installation, instant startup

Built with speed in mind

Works with .node-version and .nvmrc files 

Node.js vs .NET Core the winner?

node-prune is a small tool to prune unnecessary files from ./node_modules, such as markdown, typescript source files, and so on.
