Thank you. Engine Demo: https://www.modd.io

    Crust – A CLI framework for TypeScript and Bun▲95

    We've been building Crust (https://crustjs.com/), a TypeScript-first, Bun-native CLI framework with zero dependencies. It's been powering our core product internally for a while, and we're now open-sourcing it. The problem we kept running into: existing CLI frameworks in the JS ecosystem are either minimal arg parsers where you wire everything yourself, or heavyweight frameworks with large dependency trees and Node-era assumptions. We wanted something in between. What Crust does differently: - Full type inference from definitions — args and flags are inferred automatically. No…

    Bebo – run Clojure scripts on Deno▲48

    Made this little thing: https://github.com/borkdude/bebo In the spirit of deno it allows you to install a script from an https location but for Clojure(Script, .cljs). Why would you use this? I love Clojure and I'd love to see it in more places than the JVM and browser. Maybe you do too. It is similar to the idea of nbb which allows you to run .cljs scripts on Node.js via the SCI interpreter: - https://github.com/babashka/nbb - https://github.com/babashka/sci I posted this project yesterday but forgot to add "Show HN"... I hope that…
