This is quietly my favorite thing @github.com has released recently. Maintainers (including me) have been asking for it forever!

I've been working on my app, todometer, for nearly a decade, and took a journey down memory lane to see how the styling of the app changed over time, ultimately leading to native CSS today!

We’re pretty close to having an initial Rust port of React Compiler. My approach was to iterate on the plan document (write it manually, have the agent expand, edit, repeat). Then try to run it, see what goes wrong, revert back to the plan, tweak the plan, repeat.

new React Compiler docs have landed! thank you everyone for the feedback.

Hit a merge conflict? Let the agent sort it out via the new 'Resolve with Agent' option.
Highlights from last week at @vercel.com...
* Chat SDK now supports WhatsApp
* Vercel’s CDN can now can front any application
* @notion.com Workers run untrusted code at scale with Vercel Sandbox
* Vercel Flags supports management through the CLI and webhook events
A computer screen displays code for a Monte Carlo simulation using pizza. The background features a grid with pizza splats. The code includes a Python function, `estimate_pi_from_pizza_splats`, with calculations to estimate Pi. On the screen, a message reads: "After 10,000 throws, Pi is served: #result" where #result represents a variable.
The standard libraries already include π. But where’s the fun in that?
Happy #PiDay! 🍕
This was perhaps the most stressful programming I've ever done, I had a BLAST competing with @joshwcomeau.com and y'all should watch me panic-sing
Took a big risk at work. It worked.
Being the CEO of my own career! 💪
Just cut a new version of FancyGist!

Made some updates to the API so it can display cartesian color models alongside the polar ones. It’s now much closer to what I originally had in mind, and it should make adding new models a lot easier in the future: meodai.github.io/color-palett...
Ever wondered what Cursor's Agent would feel like if it weren't running in Electron?
You don't have to wonder anymore!
Issue Forms just got better!
You can now let people upload files as they open an issue.
We really should be kinder to people.
If someone achieved something, gained knowledge, or had some luck... please remember what it took to get there.
Belittling people who are still trying, practicing, and improving says more about the critic than the criticised.
You can now visualize how a color palette distributes across OKHsv, OKHsl, OKLCh and CIELab, and compare 6 distance metrics side by side. Zero dependencies, raw WebGL2.
Took me 3 years to make something I wasn't too embarrassed to share 🙃

Thought I'd chat about the whole "SaaS is DEAD" convo now that AI tools can help you build a whole lot of stuff.

Software is not a commodity, although some are closer or farther.
To see why, imagine me forcing you to swap out your email client, or your IDE, or your spreadsheet or docs app, and tell me you won't care at all.
UX isn't fungible, even if you argue "features" are.
It's March! So march on over to your inboxes and check out the first issue of my newsletter this month, with a practice coding question, interesting links, a joke, and mooore:

I tried out the new @codepen.io 2.0 editor! It was a bit confusing at first, but once it clicked, I realized how cool it was 👀

We're back, and this time we're answering the questions you've been asking: From "How do I start with GitHub issues?" to "How do I build a portfolio?"
Learn GitHub from the people who built it. Coming soon!
Heard of WebMCP?
It's a new standard from Chrome that bridges AI agents and websites. Instead of AI guessing how to click buttons, sites can declare what actions they support.
