Building things.

Helped create @mdx_js, @blocks_ui, @tachyons_css, @cssstats.

I love skiing ⛷❄️ and soccer ⚽️.

@joaomdmoura @gillinghammer Was thinking this weekend about how CRDTs are a great fit for the data that agents update (and could also be represented in a UI to see them at work).

Pretty excited to read through this source code, I've been quite curious about how RSC works underneath the covers.

@gill_kyle @laurieontech Also server-driven UI is awesome 😹

[John Otander @4lpine]

@gill_kyle @laurieontech Everything is much more nuanced than the sweeping statements you'll see, especially when folks are selling into one of the paradigms.

SPAs can be plenty fast. What do your customers want?

@raunofreiberg My kingdom for native VS Code support 😆

I'm ready for CSS Modules to make a comeback.

[John Otander @4lpine]

@remcohaszing I think in certain bubbles/circles they became less of the "go to", especially when it comes to higher-level libraries.

But I do think a lot of folks kept on quietly, and productively, using them. They're often a default for metaframeworks (and for good reason).

[John Otander @4lpine]

As apps grow, the permutations of styles are effectively infinite. Compiling to atomic classes means CSS output grows logarithmically rather than linearly.

[John Otander @4lpine]

Atomic/Utility/Functional CSS is basically assembly for presentation so it's always cool to see libraries treat it as a compile target.

@PaulieScanlon Awesome! What've you been building?

[John Otander @4lpine]

@PaulieScanlon I've been great! How about you?

[John Otander @4lpine]

I'm back, did I miss anything?

@resource11 Hi! 👋

[John Otander @4lpine]

I'm that broken record at work that always says "this should be a state machine", so always delighted to see xstate iterate.

[David K 🎹 @DavidKPiano]

XState v5 is finally here 🚀

→ Express any logic, from promises to state machines
→ Much simpler API
→ Massively improved TypeScript experience
→ Smaller bundle size, zero deps
→ Advanced statechart features
→ New docs, examples++

npm i xstate

@Dayhaysoos Haha, I was so ready for "Once upon a time..."

[John Otander @4lpine]

@laurieontech Over seven years in doggo.

@bragamat_ That gravity is real, and the DX oh so sweet.

Also, Mateus I miss you! 🤗
