📜 The Starlight Changelogs plugin now supports changelog files using the Keep a Changelog format. github.com/HiDeoo/starl...

🤯 What did I just read? Is that an ad disguised as a GitHub comment on a discussion, generated by AI? This gotta be a new low point ...

This video is such a monumental step backwards. 😅

Design Tokens excitement!! Figma finally supports variable exports help.figma.com/hc/en-us/art... DTCG published a full spec for resolvers which enables GitHub-style theme inheritance www.designtokens.org/tr/2025.10/r...

I feel the dilemma is, that I feel responsible for being friendly and welcoming to make the experience nicer for newcomers to OSS, who may not yet know the manner well. But with AI messing this up, it's really hard to tell if it's a human behind I should take care or just AI doing terrible work.

It's merged! The next alpha/beta release @astro.build will support @vite.dev Environment APIs! It took a long time because we had to re-architect the whole rendering pipeline. With this, even the @cloudflare.social Vite Plugin will work out of the box!

🌟 Starlight 0.37 is now available with a bunch of bug fixes and improvements! Check out the full release notes: github.com/withastro/st...

Watching @jess.sh's Vitest browser mode talk at @viteconf.org immediately made me want to build an Astro renderer. Testing isolated Astro components in real browsers is a real prize. It took a bit of work, and still does't support Vitest 4, but I have I working package. Give it a try:

This is quite a banger feature for web perf engineers. In Chrome Canary, you can now turn on an experimental feature to throttle single requests! chrome://flags/#devtools-individual-request-throttling This is golden to check the performance impact of a delayed resource. 👏

🌟 Frontmatter links IntelliSense, navigation to headings when using "Go to Definition" on links with fragments, and Firebase Studio support. The latest version of the Starlight Links extension for Visual Studio Code is packed with new features and improvements. github.com/HiDeoo/starl...

We have reworked the @biomejs.dev architecture as generic as possible, so now these frameworks are supported. The new architecture will unlock: - Angular - Embedded formatting in JS files e.g. CSS-in-JS - Cross boundaries lint rules It will take a bit, but the basic bricks are there. Enjoy!

Blink: Intent to Prototype: The inherit() CSS function

I recently published an early preview of a new Visual Studio Code extension providing IntelliSense for Starlight Markdown and MDX content links: internal links completions, fragments completions, go to definition/follow link, and hover preview. github.com/HiDeoo/starl...

This past year, I've been working on and off on the dream of every dev who never blog: My own static website generator. It's still early, but it works, it's open source, and so in this thread I'd like to show you all: Maudit, a Rust library to generate static websites maudit.org

Although it’s not a core task of my role as Chrome DevRel, I took the time to build something that I needed into DevTools: debugging support for CSS `@starting-style` rules. The feature is ready for testing in Chrome Canary.

Upvote this feature for Interop 2026: github.com/web-platform...

I've just release a new Astro content loader: @ascorbic/youtube-loader loads YouTube videos by ID, channel, playlist, search. It includes build-time loaders and also experimental live loaders. It's a useful example of how to build a package that exports both types of loader.
