Show HN: Ant – A JavaScript runtime and ecosystem
2026-07-11 @ 20:07:18Points: 271Comments: 116
I'm the author of Ant, a JavaScript ecosystem built around a runtime with its own JavaScript engine. Ant also includes a package manager, the ants.land package registry, a platform for deploying and hosting applications, and Ant Desktop for building native desktop apps with web technologies, similar to Electron.
The goal is for these pieces to work as one coherent platform while remaining compatible with the wider JavaScript ecosystem. It's still early, and I'd appreciate any feedback on the overall direction or what you'd like to see from an e2e alternative to the existing JavaScript stacks.
P.S. I’ve shared Ant here before as a runtime; since then, it has grown into the broader ecosystem you see today.
