A year-in-review for '24... in February ๐Ÿ˜… darko.io/posts/2024-... I have some semi-good reasons though ๐Ÿ‘‡

I wonder how many people I can annoy at once: React Compiler is to Signals as NextJS is to Astro

Last chance to apply to speak at JNation this year ๐Ÿ‘€

Congratulations all crowd strike users on macOS who now get warnings about the libcurl version shipped by Apple. May you all enjoy your choices of software vendors. It alerts about CVE-2024-9681. We said it is severity low. NVD says 6.5 medium. Never a dull moment.

Exactly the kind of webdev zen wisdom I needed. Make it weird, make it useless, make it useful, solve hard problems, solve nothing at all. The web is fine for all of those. And much more.

We have extended our CFP. You have until the end of the week to apply! I am particularly excited to see how the #JavaScript and #Web track will be shaping up ๐Ÿคฉ

Before SPAs we didn't call it MPA it was just web Before Shadow DOM we didn't call it Light DOM it was just DOM Before CSR there was no SSR, just server templating

I went to four conferences โ€“ and visited three new countries! โ€“ this year. Thank you so much to the organizers, @cityjsconf.bsky.social, @reactalicante.es, @darko.io, and @bejs.bsky.social. ๐Ÿซถ

My recent talk on web components turned into a more detailed article. WCs are not flashy, have an iffy DX, they are a compromise through-and-through, compared to modern frameworks. Is that compromise worth making? See for yourself ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ‘‡ ๐Ÿ”—

Swag storytime: The bee plushie named "Elephant" The fine folks from WaspLang had a booth at #ArmadaJS, and I got my grubby hands on one of those lovely plushies (thanks Mihovil). ๐Ÿงต

Web Components successfully shilled at #ArmadaJS ๐Ÿ˜

#armadajs is quite honestly killing it. Easily one of the better conferences I've been to in 2024.

In D&D lingo, DevRel people are the bards. ๐ŸŽถ โš”๏ธ ๐Ÿช„ I finally have a half-decent way of explaining what I do for a living. To D&D nerds, at least. ๐ŸŽฒ

"If I could have charged 2$ from anyone using IE or Safari, I would have been AWS by now" - a fellow FE sufferer (of culture). Inspired by some pricing shenanigans AWS pulled related to Kubernetes.

On the road to #ArmadaJS ๐Ÿš—

Fellow Linux users, any recommendations for a Type-C dock? Ideally, it should support three display outputs (1080p is fine) and 100W+ PD.

Unpopular opinion: Many UI libraries out there could be web-component-based, allowing them to be used across different frameworks without significant sacrifices. ๐Ÿค”
