Description
Would it be feasible to target N-API for it's subset of features on node versions 8+?
I've been using NAN for years but with node 6 hitting it's EOL next year it's becoming more interesting to explore N-Api. It covers most of the use cases that I have and would help keep my projects working with out having to upgrade for new node versions.
However if NAN supported it I wouldn't have to do a major rewrite.
Are there thoughts around this?
