I can't believe that build tools remain a topic of discussion in 2026

The Suspense is over! The newly updated Suspense docs now show the 7 ways of updating suspense boundaries, what a Suspense-enabled framework is, and lots of examples! Thank you to @aurorascharff.no for writing, and @sebbie.dev, @danabra.mov and @yadiel.dev for reviewing! react.dev/reference/re...

There's a confusing bug in Next.js with Server Functions that return a Client Component. The app builds fine, then it crashes at runtime with "Could not find the module … in the React Client Manifest."

The awesome newly updated `use()` docs show more ways to make `use()` a truly useful API, for data loading on the client and the server. Thank you to @ricky.fm and @aurorascharff.no for writing, and @brenelz.com, @stephanjnoel.bsky.social , and @yadiel.dev for reviewing! react.dev/reference/re...

📣 TypeScript 7's Release Candidate is now out! 📣 The new native rewrite is almost here. Try it out on your codebases, and make sure your team is ready for the upcoming 7.0 release!

LLM chat isn't a universal interface. It works for LLM companies, ofc, but for most products, it's a UX shortcut, not a solution.

Am I the only one who thinks that there's a big chance that OpenAI is paying influencers to talk shit about Anthropic?? Not a fanboy of Anthropic, I use both of them

Just tried @npmx.dev for the first time… is it even legal to be this fast and smoooooth? 😅

I'm very skeptical of claims like "We migrated from framework X to Y, and metric A improved by…" In most cases, these migration stories over-credit the framework and undercut everything else that changed during the rewrite.

useActionState is a new hook for forms, async reducers, and more. It now has great new documentation: react.dev/reference/re... Thank you to @ricky.fm for writing. Thank you to @aurorascharff.no, @danabra.mov, @samselikoff.com, @stephanjnoel.bsky.social, @brenelz.com, and @yadiel.dev for reviewing.

What a night to be Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 I’m biased, ofc, but that was the best halftime show ever 🔥 #SuperBowl

typesafety in Python is a mess, TypeScript is way better

hot take🌶️: An engineer who can’t use AI slows the whole team down (specially in early startups), and hiring should reflect that. Modern dev interviews should test how well someone works with AI, not how fast they grind leetcode.

i know bro

maybe controversial take: React is cutting edge

MacOS 26 is so fuckin buggy I can't work

I'm getting a PhD in Auth

Here's the code for my Async React demo: github.com/rickhanlonii...

CSS is hard

Things you need a PhD for: 1. Medicine 2. Astrophysics 3. AUTH

React v19.2 + React Compiler v1.0 is practically React v20

ReactConf 2025 Bingo: - Stable React Compiler - Optional dependency arrays - VSCode extension - MCP Server ???

the new <Activity> component is just 🤌

I’ve never met anyone that uses a PWA

it's giving the same vibe as The Avengers if you ask me

Things that give me instant dopamine: - Deleting useEffect's - Deleting useMemo's, useCallback's, and React.memo's - Deleting forwardRef's

Today was my last day at Connect. Super excited for what’s next!!

Hot take: Now that we have the React Compiler, hook rules should be enforced at the compiler level. I've seen too many codebases just ignore them. I've seen hooks used conditionally, missing deps in arrays, or no eslint-plugin-react-hooks at all. This stuff should be unskippable

Tried to visit the Next.js docs, typed nextjs.dev by mistake… and it redirects to the Remix site 😂 whoever set that up is a total troll

pre-commit hooks are mental illness

I was in the middle of a technical interview when Arc started freezing 💀 Back to Chrome

Am I the only one who thinks it’s sad when authors or leaders behind popular dev tools publicly trash each other’s work? Feels childish. Luckily, most engineers aren’t even aware of these leaders' posts or even who they are. Most engineers are just busy building and shipping products.

Does anyone work at Stripe or know a recruiter there? I’m really interested in a front-end engineering role focused on design systems that I’ve applied for, and I want to make sure my application gets to the right place. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Oh no! bots are beginning to invade Bluesky!!

It already feels less toxic here.

I believe we've unfairly demonized `==`. When the types match, `==` acts just like `===`. With TypeScript ensuring type safety, using `==` can be perfectly fine. The spec lays this out explicitly:

it’s crazy that the concept of unstyled component libraries is relatively a recent thing. how come this brilliant idea took so long to surface?!
