Language matters. The way we describe our code matters. @mattpocockuk talked about how loaded the word “generic” is. TypeScripy can get scary, but Matt knows how to tame it. A hint? Generic types require type arguments.

IMO one interesting part of the React canary situation is seeing non-Next.js folks (esp Remix) communicate the issues. They need to explain the problems clearly and at scale. That's really hard to do without devolving the conversation into angry name-calling. 1/2

So, React recommends: - you should use a framework with React - frameworks should pin to a canary version of React in order to take advantage of the latest “stable” features that do not yet appear in a stable release I have no idea how this is going to play out in the Remix…

I set up a new Docusaurus site and deployed it to Vercel today. I spent 30 minutes customizing and playing with it, and maybe 2 minutes at most setting up the system. Modern web dev has some great things going for it! ✨

Still incredible and humbling*: had a line at my #AllThingsOpen @LearningTSBook signing. Hope you all enjoy the book & learning TypeScript! 💖🥲 *actually this is hugely inflating my ego heh

👌 It took 5 (!) lines of code to enable the new View Transitions API for all pages on my personal site with Astro. Incredible. The web platform takes its time, but often it gets things *so right*. Plus @astrodotbuild 's API on top is clean and joyous. 🥰

@trashh_dev Fun fact: you can set eslint.rules.customizations in the .vscode/settings.json for a repo to change all ESLint complaints to a different squiggly color. That way you can know whether your issues are from ESLint and/or TS more easily.

Extension for Visual Studio Code - Integrates ESLint JavaScript into VS Code.

One of the biggest perception problems with linters IMO is that devs see them as annoying style guide checkers, not as a powerful bug prevention technique. I'm hoping the work we're doing on @tseslint the next few months -particularly on docs and new rules- helps change that.

I've applied to >100 conferences and spoken at about a third of them. Prospective or first-time speakers often ask me for advice - so, finally, here's a walkthrough for how I apply to conferences along with FAQs. I hope you find this helpful! 🗣💖

How I Apply to Conferences

From a hundred conference applications and thirty speaking roles, this is my process for submitting talks.

I am SO PROUD of the work we did here. The v6 PR was opened in October 2022 and accumulated +90k/-29k lines. Now that v6 is stable I get to spread it to my template config & other repos I touch. And we get to work on some truly groundbreaking long-term performance work. YES. ❤️‍🔥

I want to give a big shoutout to @arismarko (organizer, @cityjsconf ). Aris puts a lot of thought and care into organizing community events and it shows. ❤️ CityJS Athens last year was one of my favs. Both the conference and speaker events. Highly recommend!

Hi! 👋 I'm Josh, full time independent open source developer*. I primarily work on @tseslint : the tooling that allows ESlint & Prettier to run on TypeScript. I've got a few other TypeScript-area projects, including a JS-to-TS converter. ❤️‍🔥 1/🧵*

Just had my offboarding interview at work... So of course I made & chugged an old fashioned. Highlight of the interview was when they asked who the "shining stars" of Codecademy are and I just let LOOSE with a giant list of my coworkers 🥲😍

@metruzanca @marak 🤔 I'm not comfortable with that being the narrative here. I'm an open source maintainer myself, and if I wanted to make the correct and pressing point that we need to be compensated for labor, replacing the readme with a single line on Aaron Schwartz would not be how to do that.

I'm going to announce something super freaking exciting about myself and TypeScript tomorrow. It's gonna be amazing. (no, I'm not quitting my day job at Codecademy, I love it here, come work with us)
