TODOs

[sunoru]

The following is a list of things I am planning to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated! The items with an asterisk are just some ideas that I might not be going to finish.

• Add docs.
• Add more examples.
• Correctly handle garbage collection by using reference counts.
• Profile and try to improve the performance.
• Clean possibly messy code.
• Make async call to Node API work. Async call to node api #1
• *Multiple threads.
• *Multiple processes.
• Maybe fix the pthread_create problem about inspector. NodeJS Inspector #2
• Add utilities to allow users to manage multiple contexts. Since one process can only initialize node instance once, restarting the instance won't be supported. (But a V8 instance can run multiple contexts by using the vm module.)
• Provide utilities to manage NPM packages. If they are installed locally, the package.json file can be put alongside Project.toml.
• *Add functions to create vm.Module.
• *Make use of the native node package jlnode_addon to let people start Julia from node.
• Upgrade with NodeJS v16v18.
• Support generic functions (such as copy) for node value types.
• Make Set mutable?
• Support interpolation in node_str.
• Support Windows.
