✨ New post Totally inspired by @ohhelloana.blog and @tylersticka.com I published my ranking of Interop 2027 features. pawelgrzybek.com/my-interop-2... Ana's post: ohhelloana.blog/my-interop-2... Tyler's post: tylersticka.com/journal/inte... #web #interop

My personal brain wants some things but my work brain wants others. So I was forced to blog about it: ohhelloana.blog/my-interop-2...

I blogged about my picks for the Interop 2027 project: www.sarasoueidan.com/blog/interop... inspired by @vale.rocks @pawelgrzybek.com @tylersticka.com @ohhelloana.blog and others who have blogged about their rankings.

What do you want us to work on in 2027? Here's a web app where you can rank the Interop proposals you care about, giving us data we can use to prioritise feature development. interop-rank.fxdx.dev

A little summary of my experience at Fronteers Dark Mode, a breakdown of the header effect of my demo, and a tiny bit of yapping at the end on existential dread in the age of AI 💁🏻‍♀️ @fronteers.bsky.social cydstumpel.nl/demo-deep-di...

Bought my ticket for @fronteers.bsky.social #DarkMode2027 and booked my hotel

@fronteers.bsky.social dark mode last friday was lovely. Such a nice venue, excellent talks and vibes. It was fun talking to old and new aquintainces who still share a passion for the web. Special thanks to the organisers, speakers and everyone attending. Let's do it again next year 💚

Had an excellent time at @fronteers.bsky.social Dark Mode yesterday. For an industry that feels uncertainly balanced on top of the AI bubble, and is collectively very tired of the topic - it helps so so so much to connect and bond with other humans. We get by with a little help from our friends 💛

First round of talks are over, time for dinner! #fronteersdarkmode #fronteers

Last preparations for Fronteers Dark Mode 2026! #darkmode #fronteersDarkMode

Another conference, From the Front, brought me to Bologna back in 2012. What a beautiful city! It's also a perfect base for day trips to Modena (balsamic vinegar), Maranello (Ferrari), Ravenna (stunning mosaics), and Florence. So if @nodejs.org, JS, and 🇮🇹🍝 sound like your kind of combo, go for it! 👇🏼
