Congrats on the public launch! The repo description says "A JS/TS Engine". What are your plans on integrating/implementing TypeScript? Also I see the codebase is in Rust but there's some setup/tooling for Go. Are you planning to release it as a Go package? Oh, the first question is answered in the post: > Yavashark’s CLI can run React with TypeScript Nice, curious to see how that works internally - is it type stripping? I wonder about source mapping, for example, line numbers in error messages.
