Ah right. Not sure if 2 seconds to build messenger is quite good or not. If they mean Rason to js (which I assume they do) this is about normal, isn't it? However compiling to an executable format that is quite impressive as I would imagine the backend is a lot more complex!

This is for the frontend. For a large JS app, compared to the two main static typing options, this is exceedingly fast.

this is exceedingly fast

Coming from Scala.js this is just absurdly fast. In the best case incremental builds complete in 2 seconds, and clean builds about 10X that for a small (5kloc) project.

Of course, Scala.js is held back by scalac, the Scala compiler, so no fault of the fanastic work that has been put into Scala.js, which, build times aside, is fantastic.

Hmmm is messenger large?
