pwsh.gallery stopped updating due to my MVP subscription having to go thru a process that messed up my managed identities. It should be current again in 2-3 hours after this post, but there may be a missing gap of packages from 7/31-8/15 while it re-processes those.

Making great progress on a new Chrome extension. I'm not a frontend dev but my current stack is now:
- crxjs for bundling
- react (mostly because Copilot has a lot of corpus around it)
- mantine UI and mantine-datatable
- Tanstack Query IS A GODSEND. Why was I doing all this stuff manual before.
