Is project still alive? #403

Open victordidenko opened 1 year ago

victordidenko commented 1 year ago

First of all, thanks for the great work! I used to recommend JavaScript Garden for all guys, who attends my interviews and asks for "what to read".

But now I've checked it and there is no any new language features. No let or const with their block-scoped local variables. No arrow functions with no this and no arguments. Promises are not mentioned, which I would say become a quite essential part of a language with native async-await syntax. Generators are not mentioned (though I thought they are pretty old feature). And so on.

So, hence my question: Is JavaScript Garden is still alive and means to evolve, like JavaScript does? Or does it stuck in a limbo? With latest commit two and a half years old.

It is open to contributors :) But yes, it's out of date, and I've not contributed in a long time, and by looks of it not many other people have.

Given the amazing translations though it would be great if new people joined and updated it for features that landed after ES5!

The site gives a 404 error page.

huh - https://github.com/BonsaiDen/JavaScript-Garden/commit/93278fbcafa569fd193f8784abc267e9db09c645 removed the site.

@BonsaiDen what's the thinking here? If you're planning to archive the project, worth letting rest of the contributors know so someone can take over a fork etc if they prefer?
