   Has almost everything I need

   I've started using this as my main IDE for new projects when I'm trying things out. If it keeps getting better at the rate it has been, it'll be even better than coding locally.

   🏁 Competitors: replit

   👍 Pros:    Easy to get started and operate|Fast|Supports common extensions|Works with most npm packages

   👎 Cons:    Still not as good as local development|Can be hard to debug|Build times can be slower than local

• Making my TypeScript types 15.7 faster

  I used to use ts-expect for this, but I migrated to Vitest's type-testing utils (expectTypeOf, above) to drop a dependency. Either way, I already had the tests, and I'll admit they really earned their keep. A type optimization can quietly turn { a: string } into { a?: string } and nothing throws. The tests are what catch that. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• 7 Free Tools for Testing AI-Generated Code Before It Ships

  Vitest is a newer testing framework designed specifically for projects using Vite as a build tool. If your project already uses Vite, Vitest is worth knowing about because its test runner is significantly faster than Jest's in that context. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Three Ways to Convert JSON to TypeScript. Only One Is Deterministic.

  Test fixtures. If you write tests with Jest or Vitest, converting fixture files ensures your mocks match production shapes. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• oxlint-tailwindcss: the linting plugin Tailwind v4 needed

  The project runs entirely on the VoidZero tool ecosystem. Tsdown for the build, oxfmt for formatting, vitest for testing, tsgo (native TypeScript 7 in Go) for type checking, and of course oxlint for linting the plugin itself. Every tool in the chain is built on Rust or optimized for speed. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• VoidZero is driving the unification of the Javascript ecosystem

  VoidZero launch week is drawing to a close, and the world of Javascript development has just been given a significant boost. If you follow developments in build tools, you’ll know that fragmentation is rife, and that it’s difficult to stay at the cutting edge without using the best tool for each task. With the latest announcements regarding Vite, Oxlint and Vitest, Evan You team is taking a major step towards the... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• RS-X: Framework-agnostic reactive state and expressions for JavaScript/TS

  Managing reactive state and dependent computations in JavaScript can get complex, especially when combining asynchronous and synchronous data. RS-X is a library that allows you to bind expressions to plain objects and makes the parts of the model used by those expressions fully reactive. Dependent computations automatically update when the underlying data changes. RS-X is framework-agnostic. While it can drive UI... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Show HN: I combine Htmx, LiveView and SolidJS for interactive server components

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, so I try to combine them in Solv (Stateless Offline-capable LiveView) and write a prototype to show the benefits. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Show HN: Solv – Stateless Offline-Capable LiveView – Prototype 03

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, and this is a prototype trying to combine them. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is added to achieve efficient DOM updates + minimal payload size.... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• AutoView - turning your blueprint into UI components (AI Code Generator)

  In the code editor tab (powered by StackBlitz), navigate to the env.ts file and enter your OpenAI key. Run npm run generate in the terminal to see how @autoview generates TypeScript frontend code from example schemas derived from both TypeScript types and OpenAPI documents. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
