Things we think are chic: • Collapsible subgraphs – fold a whole section into a single node • Five new flowchart shapes: person, folder, bucket, console, browser • Subgraph support in ER diagrams • Legends for named line and bar series in XY charts • Unified renderer by default for class diagrams • New layout controls for large graphs • Up to 25% faster rendering All in Mermaid.js v11.17.1 🧜‍♀️: github.com/mermaid-js/mermai…

Very excited about this proposal! This raises the bar for data fetching in frameworks, and unlocks some very cool new use cases for SvelteKit. We have a lot more ideas that will build on top of this work github.com/sveltejs/kit/disc…

A bad developer keeps adding complexity until it finally works. A good developer keeps reducing complexity until it can't be any simpler.

I spoke with yet another scammer today. I don't know why I do this, but here we go. It all started with a few annoying Whatsapp messages trying to scam me. But we ended up wishing each other good luck 😂 1/n

"We don't do code reviews. We trust our developers". You have no idea how often I run a PR and find it's broken. It's *extremely* common. Even from senior devs. We all make mistakes. So I trust no one. Including myself.

Excited to announce the (long overdue) 1.0 release of VitePress, a Vite + Vue powered static site generator! You probably have already seen it in action if you've used the docs of Vue, Vite, Vitest, Rollup, D3, Mermaid, VueUse, Pinia, UnoCSS and more... Read more to learn why we believe it's one of the best ways to build static sites (not just docs!) blog.vuejs.org/posts/vitepre…

It’s been epic working on Svelte 5 for the last 9 months. It’s not far from a RC release too! So many ideas, sparks of excitement, eureka moments and complicated and frustrating sessions battling edge cases. It’s funny because after working on the React core team I told myself that I wouldn’t work on a JavaScript UI framework related project again. I kept getting that itch though. Thankfully I did! In my opinion, Svelte 5 is an important improvement to the framework ecosystem. Svelte 5 moves into a performance and code size class that was previously held by Solid. The DX improvements are huge, and although the syntax changes might not be to everyone’s tastes, the productivity gains and UX gains from being a better thought out framework will be more than worth it. If 2023 was the year of htmx, 2024 is the year of Svelte.

My summary of replies. Top 5 software I enjoy: 1. mermaid 2. ripgrep 3. fzf 4. @Neovim 5. Elden Ring Top 3 I want to try: 1. @typstapp 2. @obsdmd 3. @raycastapp And just to make my summary a little spicer, the top 3 things I don't think are the pinnacle of software 🌶️ 1. Git 2. VS Code 3. cargo
What’s one piece of software that brings you utter joy? Like, it’s done so well, almost has no bugs, and just generally so pleasant to use, you can’t believe humans actually made it! I’ll start. For me it’s ‘mermaid’. It always works even better than I expect.

hey people who make docs: nobody, absolutely nobody, has ever wanted the `$ ` to be included when they copy a console command
