Lightweight libraries and tools for building modern web applications

[Ficus @FicusJS]

@tomshaw101 hey, how are you doing? I’m in SF for work this week, fancy meeting up? (You may not remember me but I’m from Whitstable Community Church, UK)

[Sage ⚡️ @thesegunadebayo]

Really pumped about my upcoming Egghead course for @zag_js 🥳

In this course, you'll learn how to build UI components using State Machines.

Can't wait to release it

Testing has been broken for too long. 💔

We figured it was time to fix it. 🔨

Enter #Cypress.

@statelyai Docs on using state machines and statecharts available at https://t.co/8GTpQIBccZ plus examples on Codepen at https://t.co/mFkBnOPj0j

[Ficus @FicusJS]

FicusJS v5 is released with updated functionality for working with finite state machines and statecharts using @statelyai #XState

[Rapid @Rapid_API]

Most of the REST APIs we use are not actually REST APIs.

They are REST-Like.

A thread on what makes your API purely REST. 🧵

My take on micro-frontends:

I think it’s important to standardize on one UI tech to deliver optimal UX.

Why? Using a single UI tech to build the entire front end enables:

✅ Shared state
✅ Smaller bundles
✅ Cross-team code reuse

All that adds up to a better user experience.

I feel like everyone should try writing javascript straight into the browser every once in a while, to remind themselves how much build systems and bundlers do work for you.

Really helps you understand what actually is possible in today's world and what is handled by your builds

[Passle @passle_]

I feel like the first wave of companies using web components was a bit too early, and mostly achieved via marketing.

It seems like today companies are choosing web components because they’re a good solution for their requirements.

@jlengrand @justinfagnani @buildWithLit @OpenWc Give Ficus app state a try. Lightweight state management that works well with web components https://t.co/SgpqO3oXCI

[Justin Fagnani @justinfagnani]

Like truly, we don't have to rebuild everything to be compatible with frameworks. We can built components that are compatible existing systems instead.

Killer features of Web Components:

- standard, available anywhere, no framework needed
- ability to extend and enhance existing HTML elements
- truly scoped HTML and CSS
- compatible with any framework
