I've heard of `isolatedDeclarations` in TS 5.5, but this post left me with more questions than answers because it conflates so many distinct things (TS 5.5, Deno, JSR). I'll try my…

Yarn 2.0 was ambitious, but in hindsight, it probably would have been better to make regular node_modules the default rather than pushing PnP and zero installs (and alienating most…

The demonstrated software doesn't look too compelling (mostly floating 2D app windows), but I could see this becoming the ultimate learning/training tool. Interactive, step-by-step…

I recall many years ago Jonathan Hall (economist at Uber) describing a "traffic apocalypse" caused by empty self-driving cars flooding city streets. I think the notion was the oper…

Automatic JSX runtime was added to esbuild in 0.14.51: https://github.com/evanw/esbuild/pull/2349

Your assumption is correct. Those docks are all based on the Goodway DBD1100 [1]. When I was researching which dock to purchase myself, I came across this comprehensive list [2] of…

I think the fundamental issue plaguing virtually all forms of automatic release note generation boils down to the mismatch of audience. Commit messages and even pull request titles…

There's also a substantial writeup on the architecture of esbuild in the repo [1]. It is definitely worth a read if you are interested in some of the inner workings of esbuild or a…

It's great to see more tools adopting tree-sitter [1]. Having a (fast) single tool that can accurately parse most commonly used programming languages is incredibly useful, but it r…

I hope this doesn't alter the current GitHub npm package registry policy where all packages must be published under a scope corresponding to name of the owning GitHub user/org. The…

Did you evaluate TOML and if so, what were the drawbacks you identified for the workflow use case?

https://www.deconstructconf.com/2017/brian-marick-patterns-f... is an interesting talk on this topic, which is where I learned about Seeing Like a State . I've just finished readin…

The Fusion plugin system is rather powerful and enables colocation of related/coupled code that would normally be spread across several places. For example, the Styletron plugin fo…

For folks who really care about performance, the easiest win is just switching to Inferno or Preact. You can pretty much leave your React code unmodified and get massive performanc…

For fun mostly. It's a passion project I did in my free time. I wanted to dogfood ideas, experiment, and learn.

Yeah, media queries and pseudo selectors (such as :hover) are supported. These tend to be really important for critical CSS. Descendent combinators are possible but to a greater de…

Thank you! It was built with Styletron actually (you can inspect the source). It was also built with the excellent Inferno.js [1] library to render static pages while also having a…

You're absolutely right that you can do it with pure CSS. But doing a pure CSS solution usually involves some CSS methodology that you need to apply extremely strictly and consiste…

Someone submitted a proposal on how to support descendent/child combinators. It's certainly possible, but I wrote a response on why it would would potentially involve tradeoffs: ht…
