  1. A bit worried what will become of https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 as it still is the best maintained (?) and featured binding of V8 for rust.

  2. …It's even 100% working, and Deno just merged a PR which allows me to continue working on it: https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8/pull/1970#issuecomment-...

  3. …(instead of lua, and no static libs?) in the context of native rust. The alternative might be https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 but without needing C++ V8. (this is the first I'm hearing of Boa)

  5. …using Rust and rusty_v8 [2], Deno's Rust bindings for V8. [1] https://github.com/lagonapp/lagon [2] https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8

  6. …it's good what you're working on... but I can create JS APIs in Rust with native V8 bindings, too: https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8/blob/main/examples/proc... After working on a couple codebases that used wasmtime and wasmer heavily, I…

  7. Can Deno be embedded in a larger Rust application? I know I can embed v8 directly https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 but I wish I could use other parts of Deno. In particular, I wish I could write a Tokio async program in Rust, and load…

  8. Yup, it uses rusty_v8 which are Rust bindings for V8's C++ API - https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8

  9. I gave it a whirl: > git clone https://github.com/denoland/deno.git denoland/deno > git clone https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8.git denoland/rusty_v8 > cd denoland/deno > vi Cargo.toml ... [patch.crates-io] rusty_v8 = { path =…

  10. …job supporting Rusty_v8 and Deno in general. denoland@rusty_v8#270 awaits![1] onwards & upward! [1] https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8/pull/270

  11. …from GitHub, because otherwise it can be a mild pain to set up and takes a long time to build. See https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 . I can easily see why one would go with QuickJS: it’ll be much quicker to get going.

  12. The Rust v8 wrapper used in Deno is rusty_v8: https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 The whole privileged side (except for v8 itself) is in Rust.
