You can’t imagine how often I just sweared today about js. What did go through the mind of their designers, when they created this growing disease, and why did web browsers accept this as the lingua franca for the web. So… much… pain…
Actually, my (not that small) Rust projects now take officially less time to cold compile than the “hot” reloading of our next.js monster in my job. Incremental compilation is at least an order of magnitude faster. And cherry on top, dumb code is often 100x faster than js.
well if you are recompiling thousands of crates with a single thread, for a simple webapp no less, then you are doing something wrong. multiple things, actually, I count 3.
Almost any language is ok but some ecosystems make me want to turn into a murder hobo (looking at you, JavaScript).

Try using luarocks with luajit.
Also looking at Rust. Yeah, I totally like recompiling thousands of crates for a single webapp single-threaded.
