Just finished preparing my talk, see you on Thursday! We'll talk about the Fonts API, including how it works under the hood

1M downloads, crazy! Was really a good idea to collab on this with @43081j.com for @e18e.dev

Forgive me, gonna do some shameless reposting because a) aww.... and b) you might not realize that I'm open to fun, meaningful, *scoped and short-term* projects where I can help you help your docs/community!

Not "hiring"? No problem! Maybe you just need someone to stay until the wind changes...

Glad you like it!

And with that, so ends my last day w Astro Docs. So proud of the docs our community made, & honoured I had the chance to lead them.

Open to new adventures in docs/community. If you liked learning, using, or contributing to Astro...maybe some of that was me! Maybe I can bring that to your project!

It's on track that's for sure lol bsky.app/profile/flor...

A little increase

It's going well

npmx.dev/package/tiny...

Yeah it was too complicated, requires changes to our content collections API most likely. We still want to do it, in another version!

Starlight 0.38 Built for Astro 6

Don’t wait

Don’t hesitate

It’s time to update

to Starlight 0.38

@astro.build v6 uses @clack/prompts thanks to some help from our friends at @e18e.dev. Congrats on the big release!

This is a beautiful full circle moment—clack was inspired by our work on the original `create-astro` CLI. Thrilled to finally upstream it!

Open source is better together! 🚀

A lot of work into this and I'm really proud of what we've done! Check it out!

We talked about it with James and we agree! I'm going to remove browser support

Was great to collab with James on this!
