Author of deeplearnjs here. We hear you, and we 100% agree. Stay tuned.

That's great to hear.

By the way, if you'd make your interface more general than deep learning, your library could be the start of an alternative for numpy/scipy on JS, and it would be even faster than the original Python version because it uses the GPU. Just a thought ...

(One small downside is that JS doesn't have the nice operator overloading that Python has, afaik)

We call ourselves deeplearn.js, but you can use it for general linear algebra! Our NDArrayMath layer is analogous to NumPy, and we support a large subset of it (we support many of the linear algebra kernels, broadcasting, axis reduction, etc).
