A couple of meta suggestions:

The submission title is provocative and personally I'd say misleading. As can be seen in other comments, it can lead to badly framed discussions and general dislike about the project. The project readme doesn't even mention Webpack, so why is the leading phrase "Webpack killer" in the title?

The repository readme is very long. As a dev, I'm looking to capture the core concepts of a project from the readme: what is this thing, is it relevant to me, and how does it compare to other things? Most of this information is covered, but there's a lot in addition. I'd recommend moving everything about specific languages to separate files and simply reference those in a list.

Agree on the title. I'd have had a different reaction to this if the HN title hadn't claimed it was supposed to be a "webpack killer".
Alright, I'm feeling bad about have a misleading title and I'd like to fix it. I can't change the title now without removing this post and reposting it. Do you have a suggestion for what I should do?
An editor might notice your comment and fix it. That said, your comments weren't here when I first saw this. Now they are, so there's lots more context. It's probably not an issue now.
Great feedback on the README, thank you
