Hi Syrusakbary, I have to admit I still do not fully understand what this is.
First, I could not find usage examples on the edgejs.org page and the docs link points to the node docs, why?
If I head to github, there are some usage examples, but they confuse me more.
The first example: $ edge server.js
led me to think that this is a node replacement that runs in a webassembly sandbox, so completely isolated. But why the need of --safe then? What's the difference between using it and not using it?
But the next examples creates more confusion to me: $ edge node myfile.js
$ edge npm install
$ edge pnpm run dev
What is this doing? I thought that edge was a node replacement, interpreting and running javascript files, but it's now running executables (node, npm)... what is that? What happens when I run npm install... where does it install files? What's the difference between running edge node myfile.js and edge myfile.js?
Hope this helps.
