Markdown is markdown, and if its useful for #ai it should be useful for a human too Use chisel docs with @astro Starlight and you have one set of markdown for your public docs, local TUI for devs, and a CLI for #llms to fuzzy search for context

pssst — if you like the idea of tv for developers, today is a great day to become a supporter (you get early access to new content + benefits/discounts on some big stuff we haven't announced yet 👀)

Guess I'll have to try out Threads more.

January gets a bad rap but I don't think it deserves it. You do pretty much get off from all social expectations for the whole month.

I'm watching physical media like a hipster.

London. Next week. The Astro core team, more than 100 Astro devs, and… you? Unique swag, talks from @mk.gg, @fancypenguin.party, @florian-lefebvre.dev, and more. Sign up: luma.com/lzh944vx

Cloudflare previews 'EmDash' – an AI-driven rebuild of WordPress in TypeScript

Opus has a 1 million token context window. For comparison, this is more than all of Astro's core package. Conventional wisdom says application architecture doesn't change though. Make that make sense. Isn't how we build apps today influenced by our wimpy short term memory?

This is genuinely awesome. The CMS landscape needed this kind of reset for a long time.

Introducing EmDash — the spiritual successor to WordPress. blog.cloudflare.com/emdash-wordp...

Crazy crazy day. My first Cloudflare blog, and it's a big one. We're rebuilding WordPress as if it were built today. It's end to end TypeScript, works as an Astro plugin, and has secure plugin execution in dynamic workers. It's called EmDash, try it now ⤵️ blog.cloudflare.com/emdash-wordp...

The first @astro.build v6 + Svelte 5 website I’m happy to ship to production. Prelim. result of migrating a „historically grown“ content-heavy website (500+ routes). We tried to tackle to complexity by nesting & some shallow routing trickery I owe to @vtbag.dev. Really grateful for Server Islands 🙏

I think I might build a framework that's mostly just a skill that does imperative JavaScript using classes.

Along with the blog post there's a recording of the interview. Listen to the full interview OR the last 10 minutes (linked). www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbWx...

Bluesky has found a use for AI that empowers regular people to have more control over social media online. This is a good thing. Get over your weird reactionary revulsion to anything AI.

👏 @analogjs.org 2.4 for @angular.dev is out! ⚡️ Support for @vite.dev 8 w/Rolldown 🧪 Enhanced testing DX with @vitest.dev 🧑‍🚀 Improved integration with @astro.build And more! 👇 dev.to/analogjs/ana...

Who will be the 100th registration for Astro Together London next week? The schedule is packed with excellent lightning demos from the core team, but it's the hangout time that I'm most looking forward to. It'll be a lot of fun. luma.com/lzh944vx

Because tailoring your software to luddites will simply ensure you're ultimately outcompeted and irrelevant. No shade, just answering the question.

Opus has a 1 million token context window. A year ago it was 200k. About 3 years ago, 4k. We're already way beyond human constraints and we're just getting started. So any future paradigms must account for this reality. I could be wrong, but I think declarative is about human context constraints.

The replies to this finally made it clear to me that most people angry about AI don’t have the slightest clue as to what it is.

✋ I ask this sincerely and with admitted ignorance on the tech: why would someone care if a particular app uses AT protocol? Is it about single login? Creating some sort of cross-app streams that I just haven't seen yet? Something else?

I would bet on some form of pub sub. My view is that humans think imperatively but resort to declarative when their brain hits a wall, and LLMs will blow through that wall and not need the declarative data binding layer. We will see.

There's a giant heap of build tooling designed to ease the burden of human web developers that is dead weight if your developer is no longer human.

Reactivity will not survive the agentic era. As a wise person once said about something else, it's pure overhead.

Dan is writing web components. Hell has frozen over.

Don't make cynicism your entire personality.

I'm thrilled to share that my website was selected to be one of the winners of the CloudCannon Astro Challenge 🥳 Thank you very much @cloudcannon.bsky.social for the amazing template you are building. 🙌 This is the site: trueberryless-org.trueberryless.org I hope you like trains 🚂

If I were building a new dev tools service today, I would not build a UI, it would be MCP first.

Lyceum is now a standalone app. matthewphillips.info/programming/...

I'm so glad all of the other people who have access to AI tools today and can build whatever they want very easily, all have terrible ideas.

GoBots is better than Transformers.

Successfully upgraded to Astro v6 🚀

Colibri is nowhere near complete, and we've got a couple ways in which we're looking to improve the app in the near future ✨ You can read more on our Leaflet, where we've made an announcement post: colibri.leaflet.pub/3mhxzpvpvps2m

Meet JSSE - a Claude Code built Javascript Engine - that passes 100% of the test262 suite. First of a kind... More info at p.ocmatos.com/blog/jsse-a-... #claude #javascript #engine #agents

I published a new package yesterday to npm, told no one, used it myself like twice, and it has 66 weekly downloads. There's something really weird going on with npm. Or bots are crawling and doing weird stuff.

The For You tab really is good

Is there an API only Git host (no web UI)?

I really want to understand why npm decided they needed to do 2FA on every single write operation.

GitHub can't even stay up for 3 days straight, they should focus on that and not policing how people contribute to projects.

Many CLIs and TUIs should just be skills now. I built a TUI for cron last year and now I realize I don't want to use it, I should just create a skill for querying and display cron stuff in a nicer way.

Writing my first post here to share my new portfolio 🚀 claudiabdm.com I redesigned my old one and rebuilt it using @astro.build and @directus.io, deployed on @cloudflare.social . #portfolio #astro #directus #web #webdev #frontend

back on my bullshit! @bomb.sh/runtime poc syntax is rough, but i'm thrilled the concept works jsx writes directly to a SharedArrayBuffer rust reads from it, taffy does layout, crossterm renders preact/signals-core handles reactivity

I feel like I can predict exactly what led to Discord just now releasing a timestamp picker. I can see the planning meetings where engineers repeatedly brought it up and were told it's low priority, or that Events exists for that use case, etc.

Why are bad guys in movies always at warehouses?

Get building with the Astro Component Starter! Challenge closes midnight 19th March (PDT) 👀
