Thank you Robin Bender Ginn and OpenJS Foundation! Excited to support this community!

Hey friends — I’m putting a list of Node.js community advocates together for the project. I’d love to connect with folks from around the world who you think fall into this category. Who are folks who give talks, write blog posts, do community outreach, teach, etc? DM/tag away 💚

Huge congratulations Paolo Insogna 🎉

The key phrase.

I'm hiring a frontend developer in US timezones (so also Canada, Brazil, etc). Must be proficient in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and able to work autonomously. I need some help building demos and discovering edge cases for OramaSearch.

In the video, I tell my experience:

Ok y'all - I invited Dan & Eric for a deep dive on React Server Components. I was the skeptic, Eric was my counter, & Dan was on the implementors side - the result was an extremely thoughtful, balanced, & nuanced discussion on RSCs. I learned a ton and I'm sure you will too! 🔥

Excellent improvement last month!

Do you know what powers Node.js fetch()? It’s a library called undici! It has 25 open issues tagged “good first issue”… would you mind helping us? buff.ly/3vbs4sG

We collaborated with 7ASecurity and OSTIF Official on the nvm security audit as a result of the latest funding from the Sovereign Tech Fund!

Results were positive ✔️

If you are stuck on 16 because of the 100x perf regression/memory leak of vm.Script compilation (or just Jest users getting stuck on 16 due to perf reasons/memory leak), the fix/workaround is in 20 now (v18 backport is WIP)

Really excited to see the abstracts for this track! Submit yours and join the conversation-
