Perfectly timed with my talk today, I can finally announce it 🥳😱🎉: next-yak is now just yak, and every package moved to the @yak npm scope. Same team, more committed than ever, and yak now runs on Solid too. Check out our redesigned page and migration guide: yak.js.org

It was an incredible experience as a first time speaker. Thank you for the very good organization, the good talks and the connections/friends made along the way 🫶 Can't recommend it enough. Just submit your proposal and try it out! 😁

That was a lovely in-person day at React Advanced London ❤️ As always, it was all about ✨meeting new and old friends, taking notes during the sessions, and simply having a great time! And now, staying for the October 26 remote day 💻

Is it bad that I hear "sloppy" AI written talks from a mile away? Obviously not gonna tag anyone, but I think you should speak for yourself in talks and only use it only slightly (correcting grammar). Otherwise I could just ask AI to write me a summary of your "solution" 🙈

Sometimes I just need to switch off. For me, that means four days of gaming with my best friends since childhood. We all have busy lives now, but meeting here every year, at Switzerland's biggest LAN party, is simply the best. 🎮

Looking forward to my first international talk 🇬🇧😊 I'll be in London from Thursday (22.10) till Sunday morning (25.10). Let's meet if you're also there :)

🎨 What's actually happening inside compile-time CSS-in-JS? @luca.schneider.is, Senior Software Engineer at Digitec Galaxus, opens up the internals most of us never think about. Grab a seat: https://reactadvanced.com/

I closed this post. I got quite overwhelmed with all the replies as I thought this would maybe attract one person if I'm lucky 😅 I got quite a few leads (even local ones) and I will try to find someone that is matching my ideas the best. Thank you all for your time and replies

Thank you. Yak also directly benefits from that 😊

Thanks to the constant reminders by our @e18e.dev friends, we just halved Babel's install size :) (note: due to how npmx.dev computes package size, if you look at it now it looks like the improvement was already in 8.0.0)

After 5 weeks of teaching I have to say that I really like it. And that feeling you get if somebody understands what you want them to understand is incredibly satisfying 😊 Even better when you get feedback from the students that you did a good job 😊

Is it just me or is the search of @bsky.app not very good? If I search for posts with "next-yak" I get some random posts about yaks 😅 I mean I know how you got there, but the experience could be better

In my audits, reading the Performance profile is where people get stuck: the flame chart and waterfall look like noise at first I built an interactive guide to make them click, every figure is interactive, plus LCP, CLS, INP and the Insights panel perf.reviews/profile-guide #WebPerf #DevTools

Looking forward to it ☺️

🔥 Styled-components lost to Tailwind on perf — but what if you didn’t have to choose? @luca.schneider.is breaks down how next-yak brings compile-time speed to a familiar CSS-in-JS API. See it live — http://reactadvanced.com

My first ever conference talk "The Internals of compile-time CSS-in-JS" at #ReactAdvanced in London (reactadvanced.com) got accepted 😱🥳🎉 They decided really fast and still have their CFP open until 30.6. gitnation.com/events/react... apply now! Looking forward to meet amazing people

reactadvanced.comReact Conference In London, October 23 & 26, 2026The main React Conference in the UK, running every year in London. Focused on Advanced React topics from the React Core team, framework authors and case studies from top engineers.

My second ever application to a conference got accepted 🎉 I'm beyond words, how much I'm looking forward to this. Presenting about a topic I care about and connecting with new people is always something I love to do 🎡

I would love to have something like this for all major bundlers (rolldown, rollup, webpack, rspack and turbopack)

I was debugging some chunking regressions in an app I work on when updating from Vite 7 to Vite 8. I got an AI to generate a tool to help figuring out what was wrong, and I uploaded it at nicolo-ribaudo.github.io/vite-compare/ in case it's useful for anybody else.
