I wish! I wish!! I so wish this would happen. And the ‘type’ attribute to the script tag would finally mean something!

But nope. It won’t be. Just as var remains to support old webpages. Use strict to support newer features without affecting old ones. Imports. Etc.

But the post is factually off. In fact there is now an ordered map in JS. I think whoever is responsible for the spec and the implementations need to be complimented. Its actually shocking that it works so well. I have written painting software (much more computationally expensive than CAD software) using Canvas and WebGL apis and it’s pretty darn performant. Never native. But still very very good.

Although I don’t know about the vitriol in the comments toward old crocky. And his good parts book was good and useful to me in parts.
