Hello friends and welcome to another “how’s ESM vs CJS doing?!” A big win this time, at a year of `require(esm)` available! 38.0% of the popular npm packages now have ESM, up from 33.4% half a year ago. ESM-only is up from 12.6% to 16.0%. Particularly this non-dual, “vanilla” growth is very big!

On this day 91 years ago, the Works Progress Administration was founded in response to the Great Depression. Between 1935 and 1943, the economic recovery program employed 8.5 million people and became instrumental in building much of the U.S. public infrastructure we know today

There's a fundamental problem with open source, an that is that it's literally a rebranding of free software to remove the political agenda implied by freedom

It takes 30 minutes to read but I loved this article fellowship.balkaninsight.com/2026/04/24/i...

If you visit Istambul, look up at the walls of Ottoman-era mosques, madrasahs, tombs or other buildings. You might find "kuş sarayları" (bird palaces), gorgeous stone bird houses in the shape of elaborate mansions. These were mainly built between the 16th to 19th centuries, to show kindness to birds

We just donated to @wooorm.com as part of our OSS donation program! He's an engineer based in the Netherlands and the maintainer of 550+ projects. If your project uses Markdown, it probably already runs on one of his tools. His most well-known one is mdx for writing Markdown with JSX components.

wow this was a brutal read kennethreitz.org/essays/2026-...

I should’ve shared that I saw the Starry Night by Van Gogh again this weekend (at MOMA). And I just cut a boring release for wooorm/starry-night (github.com/wooorm/starr...). The painting is very nice and I saw several Dutch people there

Woah. jQuery migrated to ESM! Come on other big libraries! No excuses now.

Hello friends and welcome to a new “How is ESM vs CJS going!” 33.4% of the popular packages on npm now includes ESM. Up from 29.6% half a year ago. We have a third! ESM-only is up from 11.5% to 12.6%. This is also the impact of half a year of Node 18 being EOL, making `require(esm)` available

Let me know if you’re in Chisinau Bucharest Bratislava Vienna Prague! I’ll be there next month!

Excited to officially launch renoun.dev 🚀 This has been years in the making to deliver a focused set of components, hooks, and utilities in React for building great documentation exactly to your standards that always stay in sync.

I’m in NYC next week! Let me know if you’re around and want to hang!

This is great! I am so happy! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

How it’s going with ESM vs CJS today: 29.6% of the popular packages on npm now includes ESM. Up from 28.8% a quarter ago. ESM-only is up from 10.8% to 11.5%. It’s perhaps all a bit soon after Node 18 became EOL on April 30, making `require(esm)` available everywhere. Maybe next quarter shows more

Do I know anyone in Krakow / Warsaw / Vilnius / Riga / Tallinn? I’ll be there soon! Send me a message if you want to hang (or have tips!)

Il reste 48h pour interdire les thérapies de conversion en Europe. Ces pratiques barbares, qui prétendent « guérir » les personnes LGBTQIA+, sont une forme de torture. Il n’y a rien à guérir ! Signez en 15 secondes ici -> eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#...

Hey people who are EU citizens, please sign this petition to ban conversion therapy EU wide. It's a practice that's very harmful towards LGBTQ+ people. It's already banned in some countries but we need a EU wide ban! eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#... #europe #lgbtq #germany

Bishop Robert Barren to CBS yesterday:

Friends! I am thinking of doing other things than open source all the time. But I am not yet sure what. If you think of some work that I might be good at—probably related to javascript, rust, compilers, syntax trees, content, web—please send me a message!

Another Rust spotted in the wild in Copenhagen (i also know of one in Amsterdam)

I just released `markdown-rs` as a stable 1.0.0! github.com/wooorm/markd... Nothing happened, it’s just, stable.

Microsoft employee disrupts 50th anniversary and calls AI boss ‘war profiteer’

A 17-year-old transgender girl from Russia has died at the Ter Apel refugee detention center in the Netherlands, the organization LGBT Asylum Support reports.

You can be the director of an Academy Award-winning film, and it does not save you from extralegal settler violence. That is what the legal structure of the Occupation does. That is what it allows. That is why it must end.

An update on how it’s going with ESM vs CJS: As of today, 29% of the popular packages on npm includes ESM. This remains an *approximation*: I think the idea is accurate but don’t put too much on the actual numbers. I fixed the algo to remove more spam, and detect more things as dual

Why would this random npm package, `tiktokapi-src`, with only 102 weekly downloads, suddenly be used by **14983** other npm packages? It just popped up as the 39th most-depended-on packages. How does this work? Why are people gaming the npm graph in this way? www.npmjs.com/package/tikt...

Okay okay I have set up the DNS records and am now “wooorm.com” on bsky

New blog post! Let's move to ESM! 😈 👀 antfu.me/posts/move-o...

come for the easy tool to track metrics about codebases over time, stay for the tedious discussion about how our node_modules directory is big partially because some NPM packages are now shipping every line of code three times for their esm/cjs/esnext/umd builds blog.val.town/blog/devstats/
