Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
I would like the official OpenCode project to systematically deprecate the current TypeScript runtime and completely port the core application to Rust.The community has already proved this is entirely possible and highly effective through successful independent rewrites like OpenCodeRust and CrabCode.Porting to a pure Rust architecture using crates like ratatui (TUI layout), rayon (multithreaded file operations), and native tokio runtimes drops tool latency and memory footprints to near zero.
