I don't think it's losing traction so much as it's losing some mindshare to faster-moving projects like Go. JavaScript is moving forward (both in the spec and in the browser) and Node hasn't kept up at all. There's no 1.0 release in sight. ES6 is effectively absent from Node. V8 is around version 3.30, while the version in the build of Node that's in Homebrew is 3.14, which "is so old it doesn't even receive security fixes anymore". It's frustrating to get invested in a product if you know that it's got stagnant parts that nobody seriously plans to fix in the near-term at all. |
