My colleague Declan Warn found an interesting bug with subgrid in Safari. This was a painful one to run into!

292516 – Inserting a subgrid child with `position: absolute` can cause `auto` column widths to be calculated incorrectly.

TypeScript + React question. What am I missing?

Our optional react drop indicator for Pragmatic drag and drop has moved from Emotion to Compiled.

9KB → 300B 🚀

If your bundler supports CSS imports `import './styles.css` then you should be good to go!

I still find it so impressive that TypeScript is authored in TypeScript (at least for now)

One of the best things: listening to something powerful while the code you are building out suddenly "clicks together"

A big team of us have been working on a new navigation for Atlassian. More work to do, but I think it's pretty great

The new navigation: Coming to you in 2025
Note: Following the success of this Early Access Program (EAP) in October 2024, we're now extending an open invite to all users for the Beta launch of the new navigation. Hello Community, The Atlassia...

I recently got a PlayStation 5 after using a Switch for a few years. I am totally blown away by how good things look 🤩

One thing is wrecking me though:

switch: right (A) = accept, down (B) = reject
ps5: right (O) = reject, down (X) = accept

Too many times my muscle memory has ruined me 😅

Is there any difference between this:

<Suspense fallback={null}>

and this

<Suspense>

?

Question about fathom (but actually about Suspense)

Does anybody know why @nextjs.org recommends wrapping `load` in a boundary?

My understanding is that `load` would not be called on the server anyway as it's in an effect 🤔

For discoverability of posts on 🦋 is the idea to use hash tags?

(I've been putting together a little board example powered by Pragmatic drag and drop)

Now with panning
