PPR is the future of the edge, and it doesn’t involve compute.
Computing in edge workers in the absence of data makes applications *slower*, and introduces more frequent cold boots due to the large number of regions.
Zuck has so far open sourced and given the world:
◆ React
◆ React Native
◆ PyTorch
◆ Llama
◆ GraphQL
◆ Flow
◆ Jest
◆ Relay
◆ HHVM / Hack
◆ Yoga
◆ Hermes
◆ RocksDB
◆ Zstandard
Goated.

No app store, no developer licenses, hyperlinks for everything, review-less deployment model, dynamic edge rendering for instant cold boots, etc.
We
@vercel
just raised a $102M Series C @ 1.1B on our mission to help build a faster Web, made for everyone.
Our goals:
1️⃣ Build the SDK for Web
2️⃣ Lower the barrier of entry
3️⃣ Focus on the end-user
As of today, I'm officially an American citizen.
My gratitude goes out to everyone who's helped me and welcomed me here. It's been the journey and honor of a lifetime.
I look forward to contributing to this Dream for years to come.
So proud of
@shadcn
joining the
@vercel
team.
His work has changed the way we think about building and distributing UI, and inspired countless developers.
I’m joining
@vercel
as a Design Engineer to continue building customizable UI components for the open source community.
Something incredible coming your way! Can’t wait to get started!
The Air quality in SF is really bad.
Coincidentally, I’m visiting my family in Argentina in a few days!
You could say ( •_•)>⌐■-■ I’m going to Buenos Aires.
I was so blown away by
@javilopen
's Angry Birds replication with AI that I had to verify it myself 😁
What I learned:
◆ The game was 100% written by AI. Every LOC
◆ It only took 10-12 hours of total work
◆ I saw the entire ChatGPT conversation. Over 400 messages exchanged.…
Roughly speaking, the value prop of Tailwind is to accomplish, with a bunch of well thought out CSS classes, what otherwise would take you 10 years to do manually (and likely wrongly), with 100 levels of HTML / JSX nested tag soup
It's really good.
Next.js and React have never been easier, and they've also never been harder 🧵
Here's the universal 'minimum viable app', a TODO list, implemented with the latest features in 45LOC
"GitHub Copilot is a code synthesizer, not a search engine: the vast majority of the code that it suggests is uniquely generated and has never been seen before."
The future.
The biggest product of the past 20 years, ChatGPT, is a website built with
@nextjs
.
As AI eats the world, there's never been a better time to be a web developer.
I upgraded to use partial-prerendering.
The speed is absolutely nuts. I see as low as 15ms TTFB from my home Wi-Fi in SF. The final result streams from us-east, where the core pokemon database is.
Speed *and* code simplification. Let's dive in 🧵
Google Chrome serves two all-important purposes:
◆ Browse the web and connect users and publishers to the wonderful universe of hypermedia
◆ Allow users to copy-paste stuff into the address bar to clean up annoying rich text from the clipboard
@shoeboxdnb
We've concluded our analysis.
1️⃣ We're refunding the overages
2️⃣ We identified the root cause
The root cause is that the Astro bundle handed to the deployment process is monolithic. There was a top-level `await` for an RSS endpoint which called an API with `fetch`. The issue is…
I'm amazed. A single dev scraped 25M ecom stores and built his own search engine to… scratch an itch.
It performs really well. 25 million products indexed.
It's amazing how far cloud infra & DX has come.
I propose
@JeffBezos
as US President.
◆ Very balanced and nuanced in his speech and positions.
◆ Son of a Cuban immigrant. Understands the value of freedom and the American Dream.
◆ Knows how to scale massive companies as a collection of services with well-defined API…
Pretty incredible: every member of your team *gets their own staging URL* for every `git push` or `now` deployment…
No more "who broke staging", but also no more "please stage it". Fully automated.
Plus, this person is a great engineer in the making.
1️⃣ Caring about security
2️⃣ Debugging the boundaries of the system and observing its side-effects (network)
3️⃣ Asking when you don't know, instead of yolo'ing.
being powered by
@vercel
and
@nextjs
is a joyful personal milestone.
Getting my O-1 🇺🇸 Visa as a high-school dropout was challenging to say the least. To meet one of the multiple criteria I wrote a book on everything I'd learned about Node.js and…
Things I’d merge from `japan` to `main`
- Shinkansen
- Toyota Alphard
- Clean & quiet streets
- Baseline cordiality
- Housing density
- Attention to detail
- Almost no trash cans
- p50 & pMax portion size
- Walk timing signs
- Tea/coffee : soda ratio
- Smaller & more restaurants
I’m very excited to announce Vercel is now ZEIT.
From the German “time”, whether it’s making instant Deployments, getting realtime Comments and Analytics, leveraging deploy immutability for time travel, Skew Protection, or Instant Rollbacks…
This name better fits our pursuit.
