🤔 What if there were a conference without talks? Just hanging out with OSS maintainers & builders, seeing what they’re working on, and learning cool stuff by actually talking to people. 🤯 What if hallway track turned into the whole event! 💡 @tannerlinsley.com is exploring it. Interested? ⬇️

It was a pleasure to be able to speak and share what I had learnt while reducing the bundle size of AG Grid.

Can't wait for this one!!!

With an Angular app that includes an Angular lib I am seeing different bundle sizes based on changes in the versions used. Lib 17 + app 19 smaller than lib 18 + app 19 But lib 20 + app 20 is significantly smaller than both. No code changes, just package.json Is this expected / known about?

Just applied to speak @angularconnect.com 2025! Yes it's coming back!!! 🥳

I am in the process of evaluating the changes in React performance between v18 and v19. Prod fairly stable. Dev 19 is significantly slower. I know we should never measure performance in Dev but in reality a lot of developers are doing just that! Has anyone else noticed this?

added a little diagram at the end

I used JS private members for a long time, because they are awesome and really private. But I haven't thought about that the bundler can mangle the names, because they are private! All makes sense now... Thank you, @scooper.dev youtu.be/B8qrGmAbJFU

It's been a good day 😊 Always nice deleting code

Smart Bear would have failed had I not listened to what customers were really saying. And almost always they were saying it via tech support, not via interviews, not via reviews, not via feature-submission forms. Support == product development

Does anyone know of a tool that can run over a Typescript code base and suggest possibly unused public methods? What to automate the process of finding unused methods following code changes with the aim of minimal bundle size. (I don't fancy doing find for 500 that are marked public...)

I am relieved to see this view point expressed from a testing authority as this is what we have started telling people in support. I can't imagine the time that has been lost to unexpected test failures, especially when "it works fine in my browser" www.epicweb.dev/why-i-won-t-...

I spent yesterday converting a load of AG Grid Angular examples to use signals. I love the DX and how easy it has become to enable OnPush with confidence. computed - the way you can just use signals and let Angular take care of the dependency updates is 🔥! Good work @angular.dev team!

Introduction Over the past 15 years, the JavaScript ecosystem has expanded rapidly,... dev.to/filipsobol/d...

This release has to be one of the greatest step forwards we have ever implemented! Really proud of what we have managed to achieve here. blog.ag-grid.com/whats-new-in...

Some excellent additional information concerning ref callbacks

Is this a trade off for speed of build times with esbuild becoming the default in v19? Or is this offset by people using deferable components and hydration?

Anyone experienced a different bundle size output with the new Angular esbuild builder as opposed to the webpack one? Validating an Angular 19 app importing AG Grid and get very different bundle size outputs. Looks like a difference in tree shaking capabilities.

✅ Just updated the #Angular #vitest @stackblitz.com starter to Angular v19.0.1 🔗 Give it a try stackblitz.com/edit/angular...

Busy writing codemods for the next major release of AG Grid so that we can land some of the biggest changes in a major yet. And when I say biggest, these changes will enable some of the smallest bundle sizes yet. Looking like a possible 40% reduction based on the features actually used!

Together with @Jean__Meche we've been cooking something delicious 🥘! What if Angular warns you if you're running change detection too often [configurable] over a given period of time [configurable too] !? More here 👇 github.com/angular/angu... #angular

My talk from React Advanced London is now available. 😊 I dive into different profiling techniques and also look at how Web Vitals Metrics are now available directly in the Chrome Performance Panel. gitnation.com/contents/per...

Lots of insights here about callback refs!

Today I learnt that @vuejs.org can, (what feels like magic) take a Typescript interface and turn that into property coercions for a component's properties! I had to double check it, I hadn't seen this before as part of a framework, User Types -> Actual Code

Stoked to announce that TanStack Start is now officially BETA! 🎉 🎊 Please come and try it and help us get it ready for 1.0! tanstack.com/start cc @tanstack.com

@reactsummit.gitnation.org was another great conference! Thanks to those who came to the booth to chat about AG Grid/ Charts and to those that came to my talk too. Won't forget speaking in such an amazing venue anytime soon!

If you are at @reactsummit.gitnation.org today then please come say hello!

Made it to New York for @reactsummit.gitnation.org. Am I doing this right? 😁

🌠 I’m lucky enough to be a full-time educator. I work exclusively on my blog and courses. A couple of people have recently asked how this happened, how I made it my job. I thought I’d share some info about my experience for anyone else hoping to become a full-time course creator / dev educator!

Of course I now want to try this out for AG Grid, that would be a handy thing to include via our new Dev / debug mode to get easily measurable metrics.

My chapter at OpenSauced has closed, and I'm looking for my next role! If your team needs someone who knows Angular/Nx/Next.js/Open Source, please reach out! Open to contract work also 🤝 In the meantime, I'll be working on @analogjs.org and NgRx 🥰

Anyone else make sure to find their passport a few days before the trip? I do now after a very stressful morning before a previous conference trip! 😬

Excited to be heading to #ReactSummitUs next week in New York! 🗽 Definitely going to be aiming to speak to more people again as that is definitely the secret sauce for conferences.

Being able to test types is such a great feature, especially within library development.

Here's my dogs 🐶🐾

There are such pros and cons working exclusively on library code. Pro - you get to go deep on optimisations and it's justified Con - you can't always be sure you aren't going to break some users

I tried to build a starter pack with everyone who did speak at React Advanced London this year. A third of the people are already on 🦋! I'll add more as they come over (please ping me!) go.bsky.app/A1Jerj3 #ReactAdvanced
