TypeScript compiler ported to Rust using LLMs

Original: Port of the TypeScript compiler, checker and lsp to Rust, by LLM

A new project on GitHub aims to port the TypeScript compiler, type checker and language server protocol to Rust, with the work carried out largely by large language models. The effort is drawing attention among developers debating whether AI-assisted rewrites of major codebases are practical, and what a faster Rust-based TypeScript tooling stack could mean for build and editor performance.

Why now: Developers are debating whether LLM-driven rewrites of core developer tools like TypeScript are viable and what performance gains Rust could bring.
