Here is what Vite has to say about it. [0]

Take a look at a few optimization it's able to do that the Deno guys will never even be able to dream of (otherwise they will reinvent Node.JS lol) [1]. The worst part is that the guy who created Deno is the same person that made Node.JS, if you don't like NodeJS I'm not sure why someone would be betting all in another of his projects, specially considering second-system syndrome is real and painful [2]. Deno is already suffering from feature creep, just recently starting to support package.json, which I find hilarious. Soon they will reinvent CPAN [3] and believe they just hit into something extremely innovative.

Does reading about CPAN remind you of something? Something that could be the same for JavaScript? Like a package manager for NodeJS?
