Reworked preact-chartist example github.com/Munawwar/pre...

I can't stop thinking that tr*mpcard website, a 1 page website, was built not with a index.html but with next! Using thor's hammer for a tiny nail!

They say "don't reinvent the wheel", but in software "wheel" just released v2 which isn't compatible with your car, and now you need to change your entire car to just install that thing.

I finally figured out how to use Vite with multi-page apps. Took only 2 years .. I was missing a few tricks Tailwind folks will love the instant reloads (HMR)! However with CSS files, page switches on dev causes a FOUC. Can't have it all I guess. github.com/Munawwar/pre...

I decoded bonzi buddy and gave him LLM access

What if you could SSR a preact bundle from go, php, python or ruby? gist.github.com/Munawwar/fe6...

A good post on how Go's tooling is just so nice: hachyderm.io/@laird/11519... Other ecosystems can learn a lot from Go's approach to supply chain management, standard libraries, and so on. For example, see @filippo.abyssdomain.expert's "How Go Mitigates Supply Chain Attacks" go.dev/blog/supply-...

My tiny contribution to preact-iso: Narrowing route props

npm was a mistake! I am exaggerating a bit, but multiple vuln happening ... gah!

Preact-iso now has it's URL pattern matching logic ported to multiple languages! You can now preload JS and CSS for your app from Python, Go, PHP or Ruby.

Malicious versions of the nx package + some packages under the @nx/* scope were published to npm. The compromised versions scan the file system, search for credentials, and post them publicly to GitHub. www.aikido.dev/blog/popular...

"Sideloading" is the rentseeker word for "being able to run software of your choosing on a computing device you purchased". There is no reasonable case for an operating system developer having a say over what programs you run on your hardware. #android #google

What if client side routers URL pattern matching logic was available in multiple languages? Non-JS servers could figure out which client route matches for a request and add preload tags to preload assets (CSS, JS, images, icons) instead of just serving the app shell.

I type `rm -fr` and not `rm -rf` "remove for real"

I tried replacing react in react-router package with preact, just to check how many of their tests pass:

Unleashed claude code on my android while I was attending a wedding. It was the first experience of this kind. Though I haven't yet reviewed the PR it raised on my github.

It's 2025 and JS still doesn't have pipe operator. Sad

Hear me out, CSS modules + tailwind but on different CSS layers

Did you know that @preactjs.com is the third most use frontend framework? (According to Google CrUX by number of origins.) We spoke about what Preact is, and how it's different from React with @rschristian.dev‬, Preact core member, on the JavaScript Jabber podcast: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR1T...

My next project is going to be a library that can snapshot functions for purpose of unit testing e.g. you can snapshot all calls to postgresClient.query() function What would you call this library? automocker? function-snapshotter? record-and-replay?

preact-combobox minor update (but the size of a major update) - Mobile tray Check out the demo: munawwar.github.io/preact-combo... npm: www.npmjs.com/package/prea...

Preact needs to try this idea from @webreflection.bsky.social's blog post on improving JSX / VDOM rendering perf: webreflection.medium.com/jsx-can-be-m... I am afraid though it would be a major breaking change. cc @jovidecroock.com

Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Teach a man how to useEffect() and you torture him for a lifetime.

Look at this DynamoDB write speed (for 100 writes, from an aws lambda at same region): Average: 4.58ms Median: 4.34ms P95: 6.25ms P99: 6.96ms Min/Max: 3.73ms / 7.9ms Do you need Redis if you already use DDB? DDB is much more stable than your Redis cluster and has more storage.

I thought the glass is half full AND also is half empty! 😆 I admire people who can stay positive all the time. How do they do it?

I made preact faster _and_ smaller today! 🍻

Happy to see preact-chartist getting some downloads now! (It's just average 500 / week, but hey it's something) www.npmjs.com/package/prea...

Astronauts are going to be so disappointed when they figure out what Astro is

A web-component built with preact cannot take a preact render function as prop eh? Because it would expect return value of VNode. It would need to return HTML, and I'd need to parse HTML -> VNode. It's more crazy than that, because I pass the render function VNodes too. So VNode -> HTML too.

I been coding for 15 years now, and I see people who started with me are losing interest in learning new things. You can't drop the ball if you want to continue this career. Keep your skills sharp. Look a bit outside of your daily work if things are getting boring.

Ok .. I just realized I am in a minority that *liked* Windows 7 glass design! (Text contrast? Pfff .. fix your eyes please! 😛)

Ah yes, Amazon, you want me to pay more to get the thing later than the free delivery option? I guess not today.

Yesterday I learnt: overscroll-behavior: contain CSS!

Boss: You f@cked up Me: I was just hallucinating Boss: Ok 👍

tsgo is too buggy at the moment I think - It doesn't respect skipLibCheck. Tried to force it to "exclude" node_modules, but that too doesn't work. - somehow "module": "NodeNext" doesn't work It's as though it didn't even look at the tsconfig.json.
