I think in the next years we should go back to the roots - get rid of the node_modules massive bloat (even the hello world app in any JS framework nowadays requires tens of MB of node_modules, including is-number, is-even and is-odd!), abandon very often failing node-gyp, use lightweight and ultrafast JS libraries like Riot.js, parallelize JS using Web Workers, simplify web development like in good old days of a single <script src="jquery.min.js"></script>. Deno and Vite are small steps in a good direction.
