Make BFG cross platform and easy to use.

Open Genuifx opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

BFG is an amazing tool. But does not easy to use for the web developer.

Is there possible to migrate to Node.js or Deno?

The JVM (which includes Scala) already is cross-platform, in fact, that's it's major selling point and has been since the 90's.

Why would the tool be rewritten? What's the benefit there?

@rschristian Setup JVM may not easy for non-java developers, why not build it to WASM?

Setup isn't easy? It's just installing the JRE. That's it.

Edit: Even more importantly, WASM is for the browser. This is not a browser-based tool. That doesn't make sense.
