@atila.io, after our brief chat, I realized that it’s quite unusual for you guys to have to deal with bidi issues from the level of Solid or SolidStart. Can you have a look at this article from W3C and elaborate a bit about what exact problems you guys are facing? www.w3.org/Internationa...
Structural markup and right-to-left text in HTML
How should I use the dir attribute to set text direction on structural elements in HTML?

@danielroe.dev, it was great to meet you and climb together! – So about the font subsetting situation:
- The current best practice is likely HarfBuzz (HB)’s subsetting API (harfbuzz.github.io/harfbuzz-hb-...), which is written in C++ and has a CLI, hb-subset (harfbuzz.github.io/utilities.ht...).

In one month, Node.js 18 reaches EOL. Vite and a lot of your dependencies will release majors requiring Node.js 20+. Please update as recommended now so you are prepared to jump into greener fields. Vite 4 will also stop receiving security patches after the next major, so please jump to latest too 🙏
New @nodejs.org 18.20.8 release. This is the last planned release of Node.js 18 before it reaches End-of-Life at the end of April 2025. You are recommended to update to Node.js 20 or 22 to continue to receive security updates after that date.

Figured out how to enforce this italic style of function parameters that I really like. Now I can use any theme!
(Dracula Theme Official, which is in the screenshots, and SynthWave '84 are some choices that come with this style. But sometimes I need to use a light theme.)
