I have migrated CatDat yesterday and must say that I don't like all these .js extensions. I am not authoring JavaScript files anymore, why should I import them? This feels like something that a framework (in particular a compiler!) should abstract away.

Still not fully convinced by it too, but not that against it either, so I migrated my website. Ultimately, I figured I already use e.g. .svelte or .json in various imports, so why not make .js explicit as well.

One thing it saves me from is that I no longer get confused by something like import { function } from “file.svelte” // file.svelte.ts I use snake case, so I usually don’t notice File.svelte vs file.svelte when skimming.
