rules_js 1.0.0

rules_js has reached its first major release, offering a faster and more compatible integration of JavaScript build, test, and release tools with Bazel, marking an advancement over the prior rules_nodejs. Released under an Apache 2.0 license by Aspect Development, a Bazel consulting agency, this open-source project has seen contributions from engineers at companies like Figma, Aurora, Robinhood, and Adobe, although no large company funds its development. Users are encouraged to support the project financially through various means such as booking paid support meetings with lead engineers, paying for specific open-source software fixes, or hiring Bazel experts as consultants. Aspect Development emphasizes community involvement and offers different options for organizations to engage with and benefit from their expertise in Bazel, inviting partnerships to explore the potential of rules_js in building robust projects.
