Live at JSNation in Amsterdam, Scott, Wes, and CJ break down Cloudflare's acquisition of VoidZero, the company behind Vite, Vitest, Rolldown, and Oxc. They dig into why this is genuinely exciting, not scary, covering what it means for the open source tooling you already use, Cloudflare's growing tip-to-tail stack, and why infrastructure might be the one thing LLMs can never sherlock
