Description
What would you like to see added to BCD?
With the introduction of the mdn-bcd-collector, nearly all of the compatibility data for browsers is automatically updated. Additionally, there are scripts in place to obtain the latest release info for the major browsers.
Unfortunately, the same automation has not yet been set up for the JavaScript runtimes. While the data updates will be handled via runtime-compat-data following some upgrades to their infrastructure, the release info updates should be done here in BCD.
This issue will act as a reminder to set up release info automation for Node.js and Deno, and when it lands, Bun. just like we do for Bun!
How impactful do you think this enhancement will be?
The less manual updates that need to be done to BCD, the better! This will help lift a significant maintenance burden.
