What's New on Node.js Test Runner and Why it's Game-changing

Bun’s builtin JSX transpiler, hot reloads on the server, JSX prop punning, macro api, automatic package installs, console.log JSX support, 4x faster serverside rendering and more make Bun the best runtime for building React apps

Can Deno run apps and libraries authored for Node.js? What are the tradeoffs? How does it work? What’s next?

Bun, Deno, and many other JavaScript runtimes have been hyped, but do you know why? Is it that easy to make a runtime from scratch?

I've been researching the secret behind Node.js' power and why there are so many new JavaScript runtimes coming up. Breaking down each key component used on Node.js I've come to interesting conclusions that many people used to say whereas in practice it works a bit differently.

In this talk, attendees will learn the concepts used to create a new JavaScript runtime. They're going to go through an example of how to make a JavaScript runtime by following what's behind the scenes on the Node.js project using C++. They'll learn the relationship between Chrome's V8 and Libuv and what makes one JavaScript runtime better than others.

This talk will cover the following topics:
- What's a JavaScript Engine - V8
- Why Node.js uses Libuv
- How to create a JS Runtime from scratch

This talk is about SecureEcmaScript and Compartments which are TC39 proposals, and I'm working on tooling to make these concepts usable with people championing those proposals.
This is a first-hand account of the future of JavaScript security.
SES + tooling (LavaMoat or Endo) is making limiting access to network, fs, core modules or globals possible on a per-package basis.
I want to show how they work, what possibilities they open and how to make that future happen today with some effort.
To me this is the final step in securing npm supply chain - even if a package gets taken over by bad actors, it won't be able to hurt me.

JavaScript was born in the browser, Node brought it to the server embracing unix primitives and async I/O and lately Cloudflare Workers & Deno Deploy have brought it to the edge. Let’s take a look at where JavaScript runtimes are heading and how it will shape the software we write.

In this talk, we’ll create a small JavaScript runtime from scratch in Rust. We’ll leverage the same ecosystem of components that Deno uses to show that rolling a bespoke runtime fitting your needs is simple and fun in 2023
