• Is TypeScript actually worth It?

  I love JS, but I want types. I don't want TypeScript though, but I'll do it if the job requires it. Has anyone tried building in flow for a large project? This was facebook's static type checking approach: https://flow.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• How I improved my JS code with these 3 functions

  In my examples, I’ll use the Flow type system so that it’s easier to follow the idea. The code consists of two parts: a service API and a recommendation flow. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Guido van Rossum: Python and the Future of Programming | Lex Fridman Podcast #341

  You think we could try to make it such that people use JS + Flow the static type checker. Source: over 1 year ago

• Front-end Guide

  The two biggest contenders in adding static types to JavaScript are Flow (by Facebook) and TypeScript (by Microsoft). As of date, there is no clear winner in the battle. For now, we have made the choice of using Flow. We find that Flow has a lower learning curve as compared to TypeScript and it requires relatively less effort to migrate an existing code base to Flow. Being built by Facebook, Flow has better... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Flow - a little language I've been working on

  Just FYI, Facebook has a JS dialect called Flow. There was a point in time that Flow and TypeScript were duking it out, but clearly TS has won. I think Flow is still used inside Facebook, but I don't think it has really caught on in the larger developer ecosystem. Source: over 1 year ago

• How and why do we bundle zx?

  At first we wanted to just get rid of all the helper utilities. Keep only the kernel, but this would mean a loss of backward compatibility. We needed some efficient code processing instead with recomposition and tree-shaking. We needed a bundler. But which one? Our testing approach relies on targets, not sources. We rebuilt the project frequently, speed was critical requirement. In essence, we chose a solution... - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• DEMO - Voice to PDF - Complete PDF documents with voice commands using the Claude 3 Opus API

  It runs using Parcel, very simple and easy to setup. The app has 3 files:. - Source: dev.to / 9 days ago

• React Server Components Example with Next.js

  In the Changelog Podcast episode referenced above, Dan Abramov alluded to Parcel working on RSC support as well. I couldn’t find much to back up that claim aside from a GitHub issue discussing directives and a social media post by Devon Govett (creator of Parcel), so I can’t say for sure if Parcel is currently a viable option for developing with RSCs. - Source: dev.to / 20 days ago

• Build a Vite 5 backend integration with Flask

  Once you build a simple Vite backend integration, try not to complicate Vite's configuration unless you absolutely must. Vite has become one of the most popular bundlers in the frontend space, but it wasn't the first and it certainly won't be the last. In my 7 years of building for the web, I've used Grunt, Gulp, Webpack, esbuild, and Parcel. Snowpack and Rome came-and-went before I ever had a chance to try them.... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Building Node.js applications without dependencies

  I’ve tried something similar on the frontend side: I decided to build a UI for Ollama.ai using only HTML, CSS, and JS (Single-Page Application). The goal is to learn something new and have zero runtime dependencies on other projects and NPM modules. Only Node and Parcel.js (https://parceljs.org/) are needed during development for serving files, bundling, etc. The only runtime dependency is a modern browser. Here's... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
