Been playing around with Vite-Node (https://www.npmjs.com/package/vite-node) of late, as a means to quickly run #Typescript API apps. I haven't really put it through its pages fully, but my initial impression is really positive!
It's VERY fast, and the fact that it respects my weird TS path arguments (with a tiny plug-in) is great. It means a lot less of overriding `require()` in Nodewood!
