Why I use node, deno, bun, qjs, tjs at the same time

Why I use node, deno, bun, qjs, tjs at the same time.

Winds up being a (not the) rather comprehensive JavaScript toolbox. The idea being for the modern JavaScript programmer can use all of the tools available for a given requirement, task or job, without preference for any. No external bundlers or compilers are needed. No frameworks are needed. I can use qjs or tjs for systems with minimal RAM and disk space; and when I want to use Web API's deno makes an effort to provide those interfaces. In some cases I can run the exact same code in bun, deno, and node, which provides a means to perform 1:1 testing as to performance.

There's probably a few things I am unintentionally omitting below. These are just a brief synposis. I'll update accordingly.

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics
  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent
