Workaround to prevent ICU trouble #30544

Description

@mabels

My current workaround is to build and run the icu packages with wasm “https://www.npmjs.com/package/wasm-intl” which gives the application developer full control of this ICU back. But raises the question if ICU should shipped with node in future version as native or wasm compilation which enables that node could use architecture independent translation sets that give the application dev controllback and not raises these kind of problems at all.

I knew that future version of node will ship the full-icu in standard configuration. But why not use this case to explore wasm in node core.

    I transferred this issue from the Release working group to the core one. I believe this issue is best discussed here.

    I'm confused about what this is asking. Is there something extra this wasm build is providing you?

    I believe there's nothing actionable here. Closing. We can reopen if necessary
