@simonw We’ve used ruler (okigu.com/ruler) for a couple weeks and it does the job quite well to sync between the different formats, while keeping a single source of truth

What are the best patterns for maintaining an identical claude.md and agents.md in the same GitHub repository? Is there a symlinking trick that works? Can you have one of them just say "go read the other one"? Or is it worth automating copying them?

@beaussan @zeeg We move a pretty heavy monorepo to OXC + experimental a few weeks back: Regular prettier: 1m18s Prettier + OXC + experimental CLI: 9s And no observed changes in what's reported.

@zeeg Reporting back with timings from our codebase: Task: prettier . --check Regular prettier: 1m20s Prettier + OXC plugin: 36s Prettier + OXC + experimental CLI: 8s (but reported less changes 🤔)

i regret switching any project to biome at this point prettier just worked, was fast enough, supported tailwind, markdown, etc

@beaussan @astahmer_dev @BHolmesDev Same here. Yarn v4 (which is good) for now but would love to eventually switch to pnpm. Historically blocked by react-native/Expo support but it seems to get better these days

@astahmer_dev @BHolmesDev Catalogs are something I would love for our monorepos Install speed, even if yarn v4 is faster, it's not pnpm fast - our latest experiment, fresh pnpm install in ci is faster than restoring the cache of yarn 4 😅 Other than that, yarn v4 is good!

What do you use and why?

@jait_chen @rspack_dev @alanengineering Of course 🙂

@TimPetricola @rspack_dev @alanengineering Great migration article👍. Can I translate this article into Chinese and share it with the Rspack developers in China? I will credit the source and the original author.

After migrating from Webpack to Rspack (@rspack_dev ) 🦀, we're seeing 5x faster builds and 4x faster hot module replacement in development. A game changer for our developer experience, after a very smooth migration at @alanengineering! Read more: medium.com/alan/a-bundler…

@RayGesualdo @Zackary_Chapple @rspack_dev @alanengineering How did I miss that? 😅 I’ll definitely give it a try!

@TimPetricola @Zackary_Chapple @rspack_dev @alanengineering DD has first party plugins for bundler metrics collection FYI: github.com/DataDog/build-… We're waiting on one Webpack/Repack bug to be fixed that tanked performance, but it works really well otherwise.

@Zackary_Chapple @rspack_dev @alanengineering It really isn't much today. We're simply listening to buildStart and buildEnd with unplugin. Then sending the results (with some metadata about the machine) to DataDog through their SDK

@TimPetricola @rspack_dev @alanengineering Would love to learn more about the RUM plugin you wrote. Hope one day someone open sources one.

@antoinelyset @rspack_dev @alanengineering @SliteHQ Vite's HMR is indeed insanely good! I'd love to switch to Vitest. We've considered it many times but it's not working well with react-native. I prefer to stick to a single test runner for now

@TimPetricola @rspack_dev @alanengineering Nice! We found the same order of improvements when we tried it @SliteHQ. (In the end we settled for Vite for the HMR experience but Rspack was on the top of our list). We also switched from Jest to Vitest; the gain was even more impressive. Cannot recommend enough.

@crohr Impressive! Can't wait to have those available in eu-west 🙂 (it might take a while before there is enough to reliability get spot instances though)

Just published a small post about JS Proxies!

@TkDodo Thanks a lot, already very helpful!

@TimPetricola It's a bit of a longer story. We had one with python services and a nextJs application with nx, but there we some python related problems (I don't know enough about that). We're now moving towards a monorepo for all things frontend (pnpm + nx).

@TkDodo I believe you are working on a monorepo with both a Python backend and JS clients at work? Do you use nx/rush/… something different? Would you have insightfuls resources and feedback on the topic?

@TkDodo @marcillien I'm running into the exact same problem. Out of curiosity, how/where are your contracts managed/written?

@marcillien 😅 I'm well aware about tRPC. Our backends are written in python and kotlin, so we write contracts to define communication between them. From there, we generate a bunch if things, including types and axios client. I would like to take it one step further :)

How about, instead of creating types from open-api definitions, we create zod schemas and infer the types from there... Does such a tool exist? I've found zod -> openApi, but not the other way around... 🤔

@Intrepidd I love seeing Tailwind becoming so widespread ❤️

That's how I started my last project! Well turbolinks at first then migrated to turbo. Zero regrets.

@CPatchane @Intrepidd @renovatebot 👀

@Intrepidd You should give @renovatebot a try, you’ll get a little less PRs :P

No holiday for dependencies I see

@Intrepidd Never heard of min.io, look super useful thanks!

Working with S3 or compatible ? You have to try min.io Easily dockerized, it can act as your file storage service for development & test envs : - No clutter on the staging bucket (good for $$$) - Works 100% offline - Upload real files in test (life changer)

I switched jobs a few months ago to create a web app from scratch. I learned so much recently so I'll share a few things in this thread :) Stack is #ruby, #rails, #typescript, #stimulus, #turbo, #postgres

We're looking for a JavaScript Engineer to join us at @withjour! 💡 work on making mental health approachable and affordable 🌎 from anywhere in timezones between EST and CET (US east coast / Europe) 🛠 React Native, Node.JS, PG More info: notion.so/jour/Full-Stac…

My longest ever post is out: 10 Engineering Challenges Due to the Nature of Mobile Applications: blog.pragmaticengineer.com/10-engineering… This is part 1 from the 33 Challenges of Mobile Apps at Scale series. A year in the making, the past few days in the editing. Thank you to so many people 🙏

@withoutboats We just started looking for a similar profile! Would love to chat with them about the job :) notion.so/jour/Full-Stac…

@Intrepidd TypeScript with `strict: true`, it makes everything so much safer, and it's quite time-consuming to achieve it with an existing codebase.

Fellow developers, engineering managers, CTOs and whatnot; what are some things you wish you started doing from the beginning in your project? Could be writing ADRs, using specific tools, embracing a certain methodology, etc. Asking for a friend 🤓
