Title: I think that asdf (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;asdf-vm.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;asdf-vm.com</a>) was a great idea for a project. It helps consolidate installing and running different programming languages into a similar UX. It also is built with a plugin interface that makes it easy to build support for new languages.<p>However it is so slow. I was just testing `node -v` and it was taking ~900ms. That kind of overhead is completely unusable. My shell prompt uses runtimes inside of it for various things so this effectively makes every command take multiple seconds to complete.<p>So I rebuilt it in Rust but using the same plugin ecosystem so it should be a drop-in replacement. I also added a couple of features that I wanted from asdf (aliases and fuzzy-matching).<p>Let me know what you think! Just know that people have only been using this for a few days so if you see any bugs, they&#x27;re likely not big hairy issues, just overlooked edge-cases and will be fixed soon.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;jdxcode&#x2F;rtx">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;jdxcode&#x2F;rtx</a>
