Do we still need didc here? #2755

Open nomeata opened 3 years ago

nomeata commented 3 years ago

This repository still ships didc, as documented in https://github.com/dfinity/motoko/blob/master/design/DFX-Interface.md#compiling-idl-files-to-js. But I believe that the Rust-implemented didc supports this as well, and probably better.

Does that mean we can and should remove didc from https://github.com/dfinity/motoko/blob/master/design/DFX-Interface.md?

If so, what else uses it?

Yeah, it's not used anywhere.
