DECENTRALIZING NPM!!!!! ok everyone! been researching an idea for the last two months and i dropped my ideas here in a pr to @npmx.dev. it's about decentralizing npm, bringing more registries and potentially solving solving the single point of failure nature of npm. github.com/npmx-dev/npm...

So stoked to be part of this 🥰🎉👇

Nitropage v0.70 is finally out 🚀🤩! Announcement blog post coming next week. This one includes the work from the past 3 months 🤯. The highlight of this release is a whole new element drag and drop UX powered by @alexreardon.bsky.social's Pragmatic Drag and Drop and a ton of fine-tuning by myself.

Pleaasse fix your game, NPM!

I really like to keep my releases small 😀👍

Start v2, nitro v3, h3 v2 The fullstack tech future looks bright 🚀

@nadja-hesselbjerg.bsky.social from @zurichjs.com shares: "It all starts with showing up. (...) You'll realize that the open source world isn't some exclusive club. And if you've already contributed? Help someone else do it too. That's what community is for." 💛

People won't like it, but some truths are undeniable. "Two React Design Choices Developers Don’t Like—But Can’t Avoid" by @RyanCarniato #DEVCommunity @solidjs.com @react.dev dev.to/playfulprogr...

Holy moly 😲🎉! Now I kinda wonder what the shareholders will say to these news 😬.

When will my body/health allow me to meet you guys at the JS conferences and please not let it be in my 70s 🫠.

Quick tip: do not use LLMs to write code with alpha/beta libraries. You will have an almost impossible time to figure out if the source of the bugs is the LLM producing garbage, or if it is the alpha/beta library.

The <Suspense> is over. Solid 2.0 Beta is now released (next tag on npm). 🎉 github.com/solidjs/soli...

Here is an idea, if you need a job, just apply as an LLM. Perks: - 100% homeoffice - 100% trust from CEOs and managers - Lies are not only allowed, they are expected - No meetings - No unpayed company events - Vacation whenever you want: just write "Cloudflare outage"

Difficult topic ahead. Drink a coffee before you read further. People keep telling me "everything will be fine, try xyz", but over the past 10 years, my illness Phantosmia has taken almost everything away from me. At current pace, in a few weeks I will rest freezing under a bridge, no joke. 1/2

Let me know if you think there are missing challenges/limitations, if you like me to extend on some specific areas and if you have ideas for solutions.

The architectural thoughts and decisions, you have to make when designing <link> rendering, for state of the art web frameworks - aka. Solid v2 🤓 gist.github.com/katywings/26...

How many successful projects, that started on Codeberg and do not mirror to Github, do you know?

I wonder if having a FOSS project on Codeberg instead of Github is enough to render it dead on arrival by default (no matter the quality/ usefulness of that project). Nothing against Codeberg, it's a great place that just misses one little important thing outside of its control: activity.

Those search results were the last straw. I decided to fully stop using Xwitter. So my social content line up from now on is: Bluesky: Tech Nostr: Philosophy, Politics, Tech (less frequently)

I like this line of thinking, even though I am one of those LLM-deniers 😅.

👋 my recent contracts have ended (and my buffer’s running a bit thin) so I’m looking for what’s next spent the last year focused on OSS work, which I’ve loved, and now open to new opportunities! if you’re looking for a dev, pls to reach out! I've shared more about how I work below 🫡

Now this looks like an exciting Matrix client!

You: After working another couple hundred hours on it, people will just have to take my project seriously with the next release! Everything else would be lunacy, wouldn't it? People:

The worst thing about consistently following semantic versioning with a v0 project is releasing a minor, that took you weeks or months of work 🙈. Marketing-Effect: Inexistent Even worse if your project is a complex one... The changesets below are for v0.70 and this list is not even complete yet 😅.

OK soft launching eg-grid. A 8.4kb gzip 0-dep bundle you can vendor in to your project and customize as needed. No npm. No versions. No guarantee. derekr.github.io/eg-grid/

Strategies against morning sadness: When I come out of my room at the morning I wiggle around and play Mad Mole on my phone to instantly start the day with some joy 😂 m.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ3U...

What if you could press <Shift> during drag operations to travel up through nested drop targets?

Update: this seems to be a linux specific bug. Not sure yet if it's related to the linux specific Chrome build, KDE, Wayland or some other subsystem 🤔

So native drag and drop in the web does not allow to listen for parallel keydown events? And Chrome for some reason does not properly update ctrlKey and shiftKey states in drag events.. Is nobody using native dnd? How do you differentiate between copy and move, if the keys are not tracked 🤯🤌?

Do you know a trustworthy key logger/visualizer extension for Chrome? I need to show the key strokes in some of my upcoming Chrome screen recordings 🙈.

Solid v2s async capabilities look promising 🥰

Since a couple weeks I slowly stopped posting on Twitter. What a relief to be away from this buggy, manipulative mess.

Sometimes the best things happen by mistake: I started today with the plan to move the dnd wireframe elements into their respective scroll parents. But the current setup actually is way better: You can see the drop target indicator even if it technically is outside the scroll parents boundary 🤯!

Prisma ORM v7.4.0 is out! This release introduces a new caching layer to speed up query execution. We’ve been testing and measuring it internally for a while now, and it’s ready to ship. If you’re running Prisma ORM in production, upgrade today! Full details in the changelog: pris.ly/q9ckZ2x

You'd be smart to hire this guy

The open-source community might need to rethink its dependence on @discord.com. I’m very concerned about @solidjs.com losing members due to the new identification requirement. If we have to pick a new communication platform which one would it be?

Next step: making it work in scroll containers 😬

Glossy drag and drop wireframes, I think this is it 😎.

Trying to come up with a wireframe-ish UX, that helps you to find edges of elements during drag and drop, without resulting in visual stress. A hard problem to tackle 😅..

Thinking about this almost every day 😬

I only repost this because I mainly use Discord for coordination in FOSS projects. FOSS projects should no longer rely on Discord as it clearly shows it's Anti Privacy/Consumer face and only will get worse from here. On Nostr we try to build Discord alternatives, maybe Bluesky should do the same.

The native getBoundingClientRect returns 0,0,0,0 for elements with "display: contents". So I created a custom getBoundingClientRect that calculates the Rect based on the children 😎. The picture shows the resulting rects with hotpink borders. Tell me if I am doing something wrong here 😂

There is one case I am still not sure how to handle: The editor supports so-called "Layouts", collections of elements with no singular root - if you know CSS, think "display: contents". The video shows such a layout with two buttons. Where should the drop indicators render for such layouts 🤔? 1/2

Current state of the reworked toolbar icons and the new drag and drop experience coming with Nitropage v0.70.

I think Bluesky should allow edits and have an edit history (for everybody). The idea that you have to write a post perfectly with one try is essentially against human nature. Humans make errors, but some are willing to learn.

Some of the brightest minds, a heartwarming community, performance, simplicity, innovation, an ecosystem built on love for JavaScript, SolidJS has it all. So lets be honest: The only thing stopping you from adopting it, is that others will adopt it first. 1/3
