we released lustre v5.5.0 last night, here are the highlights: - `element.memo` to cosplay react (and go 2x as fast) - `element.supervised` so you can tell server components to get back to work if they fail - tidier HTML generation - improved hydration of SSR apps 👉 hexdocs.pm/lustre/annou...

i've decided 2026 is the year i try and claim a cosy slice of the internet, so i threw together a little site and wrote a note on what my "digital garden" is all about: hayleigh.dev/meta/digital... maybe this will encourage some of y'all to do something similar ^.^

any parisian gleamlins should go invade this! 💕

well holy shit we only went and did it???? it was only last march that i started to work on lustre "seriously". since then we've average ~100 stars a month, have a bunch of companies using it in prod, and so many kind words from folks 🥺 i guess i better work on a 5.5 release now!

while this is about to hit 2k just a reminder that im available for contract work at the moment, if you're using gleam or lustre* at work and want some extra hands/eyes then hit me up! *or elm, or react

all i'm saying is if we average 5 stars a day lustre can hit 2k in time for my birthday 🥺👉👈 thatd be pretty cool huh huh what if i promise a release when we hit 2k 👀 github.com/lustre-labs/... gogogogogo

i have always wanted to visit canada 🤔

If you could pay for access to a bunch of small self-contained lustre examples - think advanced/niche things that cant reasonably be documented by the lib - what sort of thing might you want to see?

A bunch of talks yesterday name-dropped Lustre which is so surreal, super wild for folks to just be talking about Your Thing ™️ in the middle of a talk. We're only 18 stars off of 1.9k and I'm desperately trying to get 2k before the end of the year. 🥺👉👈 github.com/lustre-labs/...

Damn that sounds cool, what's that lustre thing? omg so glad you asked here's the quickstart guide hexdocs.pm/lustre/guide... 😍🤩

hex.pm/blog/announc... The new hexdocs site has been rewritten in lustre! woulda been nice to get a shoutout but ah well, super cool ^.^

psst. there are gleam users too! 🤫 the most important track is obviously the *full day* of gleam shit from all the cutest gleamlins like @lpil.uk @giacomocavalieri.me @joshi.monster 😌

How do i make EUsky so i dont have to have over 100 blocked words to make this place bearable jesus Christ

I think maybe the worst thing about the default discover feed is it shows me things from folks im following waaaaay too much. I wanna see new things! I wanna discover!

i'm putting the feelers out for frontend-y dev rel-y docs-y gigs that are 2-3 days a week. if you know someone looking for someone who can do gleam/elm/react/write words, hit me up 💕

i've not even released clique yet and someone is already using it to build out their personal site!! the gleam community is just built different i swear

there's still time to grab an early bird ticket for code beam eu, and this year gleam has such a strong showing we'll have a dedicated one-day track!! @giacomocavalieri.me is also giving a workshop the day before the conference and i get to be his glamourous assistant 💕 codebeameurope.com gogogo!

any svg wizards know what the deal with this <path> is :(

Update on my reactflow ripoff, we have properly functional handles and connections! I think almost all the fundamentals are here enough to publish a v1. Before I do that it's time for a round of docs and polish ^.^

Cmon gang you’re really gonna let haskellers skew the results here???

tonight i added panning inertia and rewrote how the core rendering works, i'm super pleased. that's the fundamentals down i think, tomorrow is on to all the events required to implement real things. first up is connecting handles together.

You know how LLMs have a bit of a writing style and you can get a vibe for ai-generated text? I get the same feeling from ai-generated UI. It's got this uncanny valley vibe to it and once you start noticing the big padding, large border radius, bright colours, emojis, ... it's super jarring.

Earlier this year I left @xyflow.com to, among other things, spend more time working on gleam and lustre. it was a bit of a running joke that eventually i'd make a lustreflow fork... i'm still a long way off but i'm giving it a shot and already have the basic pan/zoom/nodes/edges canvas down!

Starfish is the superior sea creature watch your back ferris, lucy is coming for ya ⭐️🔪

Photoshop @giacomocavalieri.me into the picture and you've got an accurate portrayal of the modern Gleam nuclear family.

I find it really interesting how heavily the BEAM community (but notably elixir) is getting behind AI, lots of apps and packages and excitement.

I'm thinking about wholesale ripping of @vuejs.org's long-form guide for Lustre. I'm guessing the overlap is quite small but do I know anyone who's worked through that guide and can remember any good/bad thoughts?

Suuuuuuuper excited to confirm that I'll be speaking again at @codebeam.bsky.social EU later this year. If you're a gleamlin or just gleam-curious just take a look at how many gleam talks there are this year 🤯💕 so fucking pumped!!

It’s great to see liveview getting keyed diffs, was always a bit baffling that they weren’t there earlier 😵 Taking away what i’d guess is quite a common footgun is gonna be so nice

Can you believe i tricked these chumps into letting me talk about testing 🫣 i’ve been building out some wicked testing apis for lustre, conf-driven-development is the way

For folks that have lustre in prod at work, even if its internal, could you hit me up? I’d like to start maintaining a list of companies using lustre!

It always makes me feel weird when a cfp or a grant application wants me to describe how I'm under-represented or otherwise a minority in tech. Logically I get it, but it feels so uncomfortable.. what do you mean you can't just magically ✨ Know ✨ ???

even though this is a super exciting release, im gonna be a downer for a second,, right now, thousands are protesting in london because the supreme court ruled that the legal definition of "woman" will never include trans women they cannot erase us. #TransRightsAreHumanRights 🏳️‍⚧️

For the last three months I've been working with @joshi.monster on the next major release of Lustre... It's here! You can read the announcement post here: hexdocs.pm/lustre/annou... We did so much this release,, 3x faster(!), better native forms, lifecycle effects, built-in debounce, ...

Idk why anyone expected any different for lambdaconf this year, this is business as usual for them.

@lambdadays.bsky.social have *three* Gleam talks this year (hi, come see mine!) but they're still too afraid to list Gleam in their bio 😠

www.thoughtworks.com/radar/langua... I’ve been told that it’s pretty cool we’re on this list 🤭

@sentimentbot.bsky.social 👀

Word on the street is that cute pink language has *three* talks at lambda days 👀

In case anyone missed it, we're running a joint Elm / Gleam meetup next wednesday, if you're around london come by and hang out! meetdown.app/group/407053...

*incredibly* hyped that i'll be heading back to krakow this june to speak at @lambdadays.bsky.social it was by far my favourite conference last year 💕 i've fooled them into letting me talk about *testing*, so come hang if you wanna learn about how fp and ui tests can be best buds (:

@joshi.monster has been putting in some serious work this week getting Lustre’s vdom up to snuff. Dare I say in v5 we might graduate from “good enough” to “wait this is actually good?” territory???

Stumbled across someone working on a LiveView + Lustre integration that's supposed to let you embed client Lustre apps in a LiveView. 👀 I don't think it's ready to be shared yet so I won't link it out but I'm definitely keeping my eye on it, its plugging a very obvious gap 💕

Yoshi has been grinding away on this for like two weeks, go check it out and give them some love 💕💕

Creator of @gleam.run talking about SQL for some reason, weird

My timeline is full of folks arriving in bxl for fosdem, but im pretending they’re here to see me and i feel *very* popular ☺️☺️

I just discovered this charting lib that is pure css and semantic html. Write a <table>, slap on some classes... holy shit you have charts 🤯 One of the most inspiring cases of "use the platform" I've seen in a long time: chartscss.org

My network is mostly techy devy folks. I'm working on a component library and I'm finding most of the folks I would usually talk to about things like API design don't have much exp in this space. design engineers, component library authors, where you at I wanna nerd package apis with you!

The only way I'm going to convince @codebeam.bsky.social to update their promo materials is if I bring an army of gleamlins to SF. If you've missed what we've been up to the last year you've missed *a lot*. You can still grab an early bird ticket and listen to me yap about it 👀 codebeamamerica.com

This absolute psycho has decided to *learn gleam and functional programming* by implementing a *javascript parser*. Please go hype them up they’re gonna need it 🙏💕
