what is the best JavaScript framework? we asked 2000 next.js superfans to find out

@eaton for lack of a better option I picked a random time on Monday—happy for it to be different!

@eaton I am super interested! Can we chat?

@scottjenson @Meyerweb @brad_frost (I’m working on the WordPress to Eleventy pipeline problem right now)

@Migueldeicaza so the answer (behind all of that complexity) is yes, right?

@stefan this is the future we want

Incredible feature.

There are incredible parallels between the failure modes of smart home technology and modern web site architecture:

When the power goes out 🤝 When JavaScript fails

My smart lock failed and I’m locked out of my house 🤝 This form button doesn’t submit

The company went out of business and now this {smart device 🤝 JavaScript framework} isn’t receiving updates and poses a security risk

is anyone interested in trying my new C-00000291*.sys plugin for eleventy

me when they recommend to reduce the amount of JavaScript: 🎉🏆🥰🌈

me when they recommend to use fewer Web Fonts: 😡😠😢😭

@beep they are lovely ethan and they deserve a chance to prove themselves

Today, the good people of the world commemorate the passing of Google Reader eleven short years ago on July 1, 2013.

@deadparrot @dries have to agree with you there

Reading this blog post from @dries (creator of Drupal) about the post-pivot definition of Jamstack.

https://dri.es/the-new-old-jamstack-and-mach-journey-towards-traditional-cms-concepts

Dries rightly notes that Jamstack 2.0 shares *more* in common with monolithic/traditional stacks.

For me—I read this as a huge indictment of the broadened definition—it’s not a healthy evolution of the term if we must sacrifice technical clarity and simplicity to do so.

A huge thank you to @jarhar (of Google) for “driving the design and implementation of Custom Element support” in React v19 (currently in Beta).

Honestly never thought I’d see the day—a huge win for web standards and web components.
