Vite 8 Release Announcement

vitejs
​🚀 Node.js developers, are we finally doing this?
​What if you could have the DX of Laravel's Eloquent—but natively in JS? Modular, batteries-included, and it reads like English.
​Meet EloquentJS. (See syntax 👇)
​🔹 Postgres & Mongo
🔹 Realtime auto-broadcast
🔹 One-line REST & GraphQL
​397 tests are passing. I'm hitting npm publish if this gets 50 shares. Who needs early access?
#NodeJS #WebDev #Laravel #EloquentJS
(3/3) My generated code must run in a compiled language, with strong type checking, and within a security sandbox. This is why I stay away from #NodeJS and embrace #Deno instead.
