I use `bore` which works about the same, interesting to see new options! https://crates.io/crates/bore

Same here, sad dealbreaker. I hope it becomes an option for the next phone.

Are you sure? From let's say the 100 web devs I encountered the past years I remember 3 using Windows, and they all used the Linux environment for development.

With proper srcset and sizes attributes, that serve compressed images in a modern image format you'll usually get below 1MB.

Had the same thought, performance is quite key for most uses I think. Still compiles to web assembly probably because they mention running it in V8.

What do you mean?

[manigandham → Siilwyn]

They're referring to the Cloudflare product suite which has massively grown from CDN to registrar to application security to corporate networking and more. I agree that it can be hard to see and use all the different product lines given how fractured everything is.

Definitely, I do wonder how it compares in binary size. Especially the 'baseline' size of a hello world.

[bartlomieju → Siilwyn]

Currently it's 30-45Mb depending on the OS. We're working on providing a "lite" version of the runtime, that doesn't include tools like formatter or linter. Preliminary works show that we should be able to trim executables down to about 20Mb.

[lucacasonato → Siilwyn]

Currently binary size is a bit larger than the `deno` cli.

We are currently working on reducing size for these `deno compile` binaries though. From preliminary testing we think we can reduce size by around 60% - maybe even more.

[mrkurt → Siilwyn]

Seems like it's big, our Go CLI clocks in about 30MB on Linux. Deno with hello world is like 32MB.

But I honestly don't mind up until about 100MB.

[andyfleming → Siilwyn]

The files are big now. ~30 MB.

Size was not really a goal for the first pass of the feature.

[javajosh → Siilwyn]

The link shows its 48MB for a trivial program (I assume its trivial - its called "cat")
