MCP servers unlock workflows your users have wanted for years but couldn’t attempt. If you want your app in that future, build the integration correctly the first time.

After many long years, the most widely used React framework in the world has React Server Components support! And the migration story is iterative, not "big bang" 💥

I think React Router's take on RSC is really great. Read the article and watch the whole video here: www.epicreact.dev/react-router...

Did you know that `preload="auto"` on a video element won't work if the video is conditionally rendered? 🤔 React's new `` component solves this problem (and many others) elegantly. Here's how.

Did you know React 19's ViewTransition component can create smooth, animated transitions between pages? Just wrap elements with the same name prop and React handles the rest. No complex animation libraries needed! 🎬

The Website for Agents: MCP Servers

Let's talk about it... www.epicai.pro/the-website-...
November 21, 2025 at 8:04 PM
"Code Mode" by @CloudflareDev and "Code Execution" by @AnthropicAI are encouraging and welcome signs of MCP optimization, not admission of it's failings (as some would have you all suppose).

Here's my take on the subject: www.epicai.pro/its-time-to-...
It's time to critique MCP
MCP critiques reveal early-web-style inefficiencies, but emerging standards and optimizations show the platform rapidly maturing toward better, faster agent UX.

Got inspired by @kentcdodds.com to play around with MCP UI in Angular. Definitely rough around the edges but it's really neat to see this all come together. 🌈
MCP UI allows you to expose JavaScript components via the model context protocol

In this quick video @hybrist.dev shares how you created an Angular component and exposed it as a tool to ChatGPT www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMNo...

OpenAI just dropped the Apps SDK, built on MCP. This is the future of how users will interact with your apps.

You won’t need to build a chatbot anymore.
OpenAI is the chatbot.
You just expose your tools through MCP.

Exciting progress toward Jarvis! youtu.be/9e581mYtrrs
