Microsoft has announced a release candidate (RC) of TypeScript 7.0. A port of JavaScript-based TypeScript that is based on the Go language, TypeScript 7.0 is often about 10 times faster than TypeScript 6.0, Microsoft said, thanks to native code speed and shared memory parallelism. Developers can get the new compiler by installing it from the typescript package on npm: npm install -D typescript@rc Unlike TypeScript 6.0, TypeScript 7.0 performs many steps in parallel, including parsing, type checking, and emitting, Microsoft said. Some of these steps, such as parsing and emitting, can mostly be done independently across files. For that reason, parallelization automatically scales well with larger codebases with relatively little overhead. However, not every step in a TypeScript build is easily parallelizable, Microsoft said. With TypeScript 7.0 RC now available, Microsoft plans to release TypeScript 7.0 within the next month. The company said it will focus on release coordination and

Deno Land has published Deno 2.9, an update of the company’s JavaScript/TypeScript/WebAssembly runtime that features deno desktop, a mechanism for building native desktop applications from the web stack developers already know. Introduced June 25, Deno 2.9 also improves startup time, memory use, and HTTP throughput, the company said. Deno installation instructions can be found at docs.deno.com. With Deno 2.9, users can point deno desktop at a script or a web framework project to produce a native and self-contained desktop application where the UI runs in a webview and the logic runs in Deno. Because deno desktop is built on the same machinery as deno compile, the output is a single, distributable binary with code and assets embedded, Deno Land said. Also in Deno 2.9, a hello-world program now cold-starts in about half the time it took in 2.8 (34ms down to 17ms), the company said. This improvement results from a combination of factors including lazy-loadingnode: globals out of the snaps
