I'm curious why they needed to fork Deno to achieve this. There wasn't a way to achieve this as like a library/3rd party package/wrapper or something?

The fork is already ~1700 commits out of date with the original. How often would they sync, etc.?

Maybe it was a bit simpler to pull in the Rust crates and add bindings. I've read that modifying and extending Deno is relatively easy to do in this way?

Upfront simpler short term solution, 100%. Impressive too I might add. I love stuff like this. Turning "scripting language JavaScript/TypeScript" into cross-platform usable GUI that can do like <canvas> and 3D rendering if I understand correctly? So cool.

I just "worry" (in an unsolicited advice fashion might I add) is there a better alternative to maintain this longterm
