The first thing that I am curious to see if it take off is Deno Desktop. I am not planning on going in depth or building any desktop app at this time, just to see how and what gets built with it.
Anybody here a Deno fan or has worked with Deno and is looking at this to potentially build something?
The second thing that caught my attention on this episode is the open-source Hermes Agent. I might give it a test run. This line alon has my attention: “It learns your project, auto-generates skills, and never forgets how it soved a problem”
Anyone here has any opinion or experience with this autonomous agent?
I like the idea presented. Though, from experience, the compatibility is never as easy as these solutions present themselves. Besides, the easy (largely solved) part is code working on multiple machines; the difficulty is distribution - certificates, signing, gaining trust, getting on Apple/MS stores, having a self-updating feature across multiple distribution channels. Ask me how I know
Deno has interested me for a few years, though. It is mostly written in Rust, and the Deno team have published the different pieces as crates (libraries) for anyone to use (e.g. the JS engine), which I have looked into a lot for some of our previous tooling to run the curriculum.
I run the Deno subreddit on Reddit. There is some enthusiasm around Deno Desktop, and it will be interesting to see where it goes. The discussion of the release there: Reddit - Please wait for verification
My read is it’s going to be a lot simpler and lighter-weight for Node / Deno devs than Electron.
