I think I might have enough material to look at for a second season of "speeding up the javascript ecosystem"

“Speeding up” as in, performance, Or as in de-duplicating efforts? for the latter, we worked really hard on getting Node API modules ready to React Native so the module ecosystems can be unified without losing performance. In our estimate 150+ RN-only GitHub repos could be eliminated.
