If Node.js is supposed to make "cross platform" easier via JavaScript...
If Node.js is supposed to make "cross platform" easier via JavaScript, then WHY did it take so long for the internals running Node.js stuff to support ARM64?
I'm just a _bit_ confused, here. Java is cross-platform as long as there's a JVM. But we're talking SCRIPT here, which is interpretive. Just what hardware-dependent things are the Node.js and other supporting libs DOING that you can't just re-compile them for ARM64 and be done with it?
In my opinion, Micros~1 might as well JUST USE C/C++ and be done with this kind of "unexpected incompatibility". You could use it with wxWidgets, Qt, or GTK for cross-platform compatibility, too. Or, maybe fix MFC so that it SUPPORTS LINUX... I think that would be _AWESOME_ !!!
_SO_ many OTHER possible solutions, yet they chose something based on Node.js ...
Biting the hand that feeds IT
