new version of eslint-plugin-lit 🎉 it has a new rule for preferring `@querySelector` decorator and friends

this issue is why now hundreds of workflows do `npm i -g npm@10 ; npm i -g npm@11` 😅 would love to know how the CLI managed to get into this state where it only works if a prev version of itself is installed first

people were asking me what this is for 👀 basically it means we can assert against snapshots of the frames rendered to a term rather than a big blob of ANSI sequences. it also means we can build a player on top of it like this, which lets you go back/forward through frames and play/pause

gradually getting there 👀

Last couple of months have been a lot of meet ups, conferences, etc. Lots of great people and conversations 🙏 Now for a much needed week of local friends & family 😀

here it is! its a library that parses CLI output into frames you can navigate around. e.g. if you're writing tests for a CLI you can use this with toMatchSnapshot() so you get an array of rendered frames

i made a library a while ago i was really happy with and want to finish off - but can't remember where i left it 😂

created an empty dir for an atproto idea then immediately pulled at a thread. now deep in pds-land 😅

nice AI bot opening issues about dependencies

Hoping the folks I know at cloudflare are unaffected by the layoffs 🤞

Now the various tech events and meetups are over, time to catch up on all the things 😄 And have a very chilled non tech weekend

Very fun weekend with a bunch of @npmx.dev friends 🎉 Now heading back home for all day hey and more friends 😄

If you're up in Leeds for all day hey, definitely check out: Coffee: raw coffee, la bottega Breakfast: IF or laynes Food: empire cafe, ox club, joys, Thai aroy dee, tharavadu, bundobust Beer: the vic, whitelocks, pig love, brew society Or get me to show you around 😂

Who will be at all day hey? 👀 Few of us are going for food the evening before. Let me know if you wanna join! 🙏

in github's file list, this isn't a link 😬 its a js link, e.g. right click -> open in new tab isn't a thing

Got my ticket to @zurichjs.com 💥 Good event with good people 🙏

build more random stuff 🖖

Only an agent tells you how many tests you have 😄 "All tests pass (308)"

Spent an hour catching up on older/stale PRs today. Lots of good, difficult problems 😄 Bringing official TS types to chai, recursive mode in chokidar, and getting rid of cross-spawn

finally got around to adding recursive watchers to chokidar. draft for now but should give people an option when watching a huge amount of files

ICYMI: all @bomb.sh repos now link to opencollective.com/bombshell-dev! Please consider supporting our mission to build world class primitives for building CLIs and TUIs in JavaScript 🙏

i often forget this exists - @orta.io maintains a bunch of useful base tsconfigs here. saves you having to maintain a hand-rolled tsconfig (or copy one) across your repos. super useful

😬

Want to get involved with @e18e.dev and unsure where to start? Our Framework tracker project is developing a comparison tool for meta-frameworks. We have a great list of good first issues to get stuck into. github.com/e18e/framewo...

i've been using the ungrouped notifications view on github for a long time, going through one by one. finally switched to the grouped view and its so much nicer, especially with the huge increase in PRs/issues im dealing with these days

New release of the @e18e.dev ESLint plugin! 🎉 Bunch of fixes to the auto-fixes of rules, and started the process of moving merging eslint-plugin-depend into it

this is today! come hang out and see us joke about Alex getting Jake's name wrong 😂 i'll also be dropping by to share what's new in e18e lately

Made with love and SvelteKit! First time really building with SvelteKit, and it is great. Everything the @e18e.dev community does is to help make the JavaScript ecosystem more performant and help your products and software better. Come get involved.

we launched a new @e18e.dev mini-site today! replacements.fyi acts as a super simple frontend to the module replacements data. we noticed the data wasn't very discoverable, so this is a focused tool for when you want to quicky look up if something has alternatives (esp. native ones!)

tweaked my xkcd renderer a bunch, its a lot faster & more stable now! this renders any npm package's dependency tree as an interactive xkcd strip 👀

i noticed in @npmx.dev we have a lot of warning-level notices but few "success" notices so far - so i've added a celebration message for when a package gets smaller! (coming in the next release) 🎉

we're working on a new mini-site for making replacements (native and opinionated) more discoverable in @e18e.dev already finding this useful myself anytime i want to know "do i need this anymore?" 😀 there's been such good community collab going on to build this too. loving it! 💙

this morning there was chatter in the @e18e.dev discord about i18next having unused deps/bundles this evening there's a new release out! now it is zero-dependency, and ~330KB smaller 🎉

Next week! 🎉 Just after TypeScript 7.0 beta release too 😀

updated chrome and my favourite panel isn't working anymore - the profiler 😅

i deleted my post about tidelift as i didn't want to speculate. here's a 2nd attempt after further research: - tidelift pays you more if you split your package into smaller pieces - 20-30 lifted packages can earn you $1-2k/month big users have 100s of lifted packages. there may be a cap.

npm packages people installed by mistake: - aws-lambda, 1.1M/w, actually an unofficial CLI for deploying lambdas - util, 39M/w, browser port of node:util, but at least 14M of those dls don't import it - https, 3.4M/w, empty package (for now?)

finally have to update macOS because some apps require it 😬

trying out mise - seems pretty cool so far 👀 like a wireit but cross-language

published parse5 v8.0.1 🎉 this drops the install size from 877KB to 573KB

doing a patch release of a 100M/week package, let me know if i break the interwebs

The train is moving! Only 2 hours late 😅

Stuck on the train from London! Broken down train causing a fun amount of chaos

Less than two weeks until the next e18e & friends episode is up! Time to talk about the @typescriptlang.org impact on ecosystem performance! Looking forward to the conversation with @jakebailey.dev 🙌🏻 Any questions for him? Drop them down below!

Another great talk by @rich-harris.dev at cityjs 🔥 local first, yes please 😀

Next episode of e18e & friends, we will be talking to @jakebailey.dev ! Come join us on April 28th at 1PM EST / 7PM CET 🎉

Heading to London! 🚂

this is why an increasing number of workflows now install npm twice.

there's plans for an @npmx.dev meetup brewing this evening in London 👀

cooking something e18e up with @paolo.ricciuti.me and @dreyfus11.bsky.social 👀
