@leeerob I like to symlink the Downloads folder to the Desktop, forces me to keep it tidy: rm -rf ~/Downloads && ln -s ~/Downloads ~/Desktop (might need sudo on macOS)

@farazKhan404 Disclaimer: haven't properly played with it myself yet, but next project I'd like to consider using it (probably in a serverless context)

[Alun @4lun]

@farazKhan404 Can do, it has a standalone adapter (node.js HTTP server), or can be used with other libs/services (e.g. Next.js, express, AWS lambda): https://t.co/rEjIbVwUjT

@mmatuzo Can't live without it now. My workflow is to always build components in Storybook first, integrate into app later. Forces a clear separation of concerns and gives you some pretty sweet options for testing (e.g. Storyshots, Loki)

This resonates with me quite a lot. But instead of second guessing the modern web, I never was convinced of this in the first place. Still guilty of trying to force the shiny new toys onto some applications. https://t.co/UrGaJLaQyS

@CrepikCZ @BoniattiV Figured it out, it's now clay instead of gravel

@CrepikCZ @BoniattiV Hmm, I'm struggling with this too (3.4b on 1.15.2)
