Statically Typed vs. Dynamically Typed is not “settled”. In fact, that framing only confuses people. As if you have to prefer any language that is static over any that is dynamic. Some static type systems are worse than dynamic type systems. I’d rather write plain JS than Java.

I hate codesandbox as primary documentation so much... Trying to look at a couple of code snippets and have to wait for a sandbox to load (if it loads at all) every time I clicked, and then dig in the source code to find the relevant piece. Nope nope, do not want.

Waku v0.16.0 has been released! Huge thanks to for various contributions. Repo: github.com/dai-shi/waku Demo: codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/waku… What is Waku? It's a React framework for RSC. This version uses Vite v4.5.0. I would like to ask help for testing. Any volunteers?

We have made the decision to deprecate ESLint’s core formatting rules. We share the reasoning and next steps in this post. eslint.org/blog/2023/10/d…

Add `if (Math.random() < 0.01) throw new Error('Bad luck')` to totally stop unlucky people from using your software.

The longer you work as a software engineer, the more you realize that writing the code is rarely the hard part.

React Aria is not only the best foundation for building the component library but also an incredible resource from which to learn. I learned so much about correct naming, patterns, interaction, composition, and UX by reading their specs – spectrum.adobe.com.

React Aria Components stable v1.0 release by the end of the year. 🤞

✨ Neat little component we use in Catalyst to ensure a 44x44 tap target for touch devices. Actual rendered element doesn't change in size, this just expands the hit area in a totally invisible way that doesn't impact the layout 🪄

Announcing React Aria Components v1.0.0! 🥳 Over 40 components with built-in behavior, adaptive interactions, top-tier accessibility, and internationalization out of the box, ready for your styles. react-spectrum.adobe.com/react-aria/ind…

Bret Johnson This term is a bit better, but I still feel that only technical people should be managing technical work. There is nothing wrong with someone defining what does or doesn't go into a product, and what the priorities are, but ...

If you push for process in product creation, you raise the floor *and* lower the ceiling. So be mindful of whether consistency of delivery or an outlier experience is what your opportunity calls for Either way, "embrace the suck"

Deno is launching a new JavaScript package registry / alternative to npm jsr.io/waitlist

I will never get over how little developers care about the user experience they create and how much they care about what their code looks like

Introducing Waku “pages router”! 🎉 We’re excited to bring a minimal file-based router API to the modern React era. Waku is now the fastest way to start building with server components. Learn more 👉 waku.gg/blog/introduci… ⛩️

🤩 Excited to announce Waku v0.20.2! Waku is the Minimal React Framework with first-class RSC support. A few new contributors have joined us, fixed some bugs, and improved use cases, such as SSG. I think it’s now pretty solid for SSG. waku.gg ⛩️

This is why ByteDance hasn’t moved much in rolling RSC into our major products. Business value hasn’t yielded anywhere near the hype.

You know that saying, “you don’t know a programming language until you know two?” Maybe it can be applied to many things- you don’t know a JS framework, you don’t know a platform, etc. The comparison point is important because otherwise, design decisions can feel like a given.

In an election with two bad choices — one an unapologetic fascist who I think will only worsen the genocide in Gaza — I’m not going to waste my vote on a third bad choice and effectively say “bring on the fascist” simply because it allows me to feel morally superior.

HELL YES
