New release with of #fab4m finally, with some changes to how JSON Schemas are generated, instead of generating very complex schemas that could validate any form we now generate a schema based on the data when using conditional logic. https://t.co/9bW4kacTN5

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

Just released #fab4m 1.0.0-beta18 with support for form groups as tables:

just published #fab4m 1.0.0-beta17 with support for custom markup for an form field using the custom widget: https://t.co/vlXOJx0ax5 #reactjs #buildinpublic

@kentcdodds Sending emails without one isn't possible anymore :)

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

@kentcdodds A framework enforces a certain way of doing things, a library just provides me with utilities to achieve it and leave it to me to figure out the structure. Some frameworks have certain features, others don't, but I think that's the key difference.

@gabegreenberg I guess I happily take the $1 million, it's my clients who's going to have to pay me more in the end when I'm refactoring/fixing bugs that could be easily cought way before production ;)

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

@jlongster @tannerlinsley The better libraries get at typing the less you have to type yourself I think :)

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

@jlongster Really depends on what's in those 80%. As for me I think we get pretty far with type inference already, and some libraries does this way better than others, tanstack router by @tannerlinsley being the state of the art.

@housecor The greatest benefit with #typescript for me has been when it's time to refactor. It might be a bit tedious at times to write, but I done huge refactors, just changing the necessary bits and then I get a pile of errors telling me what to change, and then it just works!

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

@MrPunyapal This would have to be run in WSL for windows, but I use asdf, then I can have one .tool-versions in each project dir and it deals with both node and PHP. then I use sail for actually running the web server, but artisan can be run locally :)

Finally got to work a bit on my @reactjs form library. One of the major bits just got in, the variants API: https://t.co/3QCcPTR5iF

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

It's 2023 and #javascript Drag n drop i still a major pain in the ass.

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

Just published https://t.co/8e2RPE41yq 1.0.0-beta14 with support for hidden fields using the hidden field widget. Still working on a form builder and several major API changes along with that and then we're ready for the first stable release!

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

I just love refactoring #typescript codebases. Getting a full list of all the things you need to fix after changing some types is really productive. Love working on the backend, but #python and #php are miles away.

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

Released 1.0.0-beta12 of fab4m, on the same day, got a bit too overexcited :) This time I simplified the widget extension api and also documented it:

#javascript #reactjs

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

Just released fab4m 1.0.0-beta11 with some really nice things:
- A @tailwindcss theme (https://t.co/3dLmwj9Yi3)
- The unserialize() function is now synchronous, making it much easier to work with forms that you saved. #reactjs #js

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

It's fascinating about everyone talking about their jobs being in "danger" because of an impending #AI takeover. That's not a danger, that just something you don't have to spend your time doing anymore. What's outdated is our perception that time = money.

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

@whitefluffyC I have a draft pull request where I try to typecast form data into proper types that tells a different story :) starting it was easy...

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

just dropped a new release of https://t.co/8e2RPE41yq ! fixed a few annoying bugs and decided that the default value feature wasn't a feature at all... #javascript #reactjs

[Fabian Sörqvist @fabsor_]

Anyone in the @remix_run community using @playwrightweb ? Thinking about setting up a stack ;)
