The first tech conference I every attended was Wordcamp back in 2013. Now 11 years later, in 2024, I'm happy to confirm that I will be speaking on the history of CSS animation and the upcoming "CSS View Transition" API at the very same conference! ✨

Fixed the illusive bug and add example code from last week's "Web Components in React 19" session to Github: https://t.co/gJfuDhF69T

For anyone curious, the bug was that I destructured "value" from the HTML element, thus breaking the in-memory reference.
