It looks like Svelte remote functions got even better since the initial proposal and it's even easier to do optimistic UI updates when the actual PR lands.

Remix is breaking up with React.

In the early days of Remix they talked about having a framework agnostic solution so I'm curious to see where they go from here.

you can now use .ts files in the playground:

svelte.dev/playground/7...

caveat: only supports erasable syntax (www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handboo...). under the hood this uses bloomberg.github.io/ts-blank-spa...

(note that typechecking/intellisense are TODO)
TypeScript! • Playground • Svelte

Brilliant. Peak 2025.
Do you want to advertise "my Node.js product now uses AI!!" but don't know how to add AI?

I love that the guy who developed the measles vaccine cussed like a trooper, and his bosses tried to make him go to "charm school". He created something like 40 vaccines that save millions of lives each year, but hardly anyone recognizes his name.
