   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

• Interesting links - May 2026

  Pro-tip: Yt-dlp works great with TikTok, so you don’t have to actually open the page if you still wanna view the video. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Subtitles From a YouTube Link Without Leaving the Browser

  The shift isn't about speed. Local Whisper on an M2 still beats the browser — distil-large-v3 is 6.3× faster than large-v3 at ~49% of the parameters and stays within 1% WER on long-form audio (Gandhi et al. 2023, HF model card), but that's running natively, not in a WebAssembly sandbox. What changed is that the extraction step and the inference step finally live in the same runtime. yt-dlp is still the most... - Source: dev.to / 3 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
