Another week, another newsletter. Let’s get to it!

Around the Web

• Deno 1.30 is out! With support for built-in Node modules and more! I think we’re going to be seeing a lot more adoption of Deno in 2023.
• I didn’t drop this in last week’s newsletter because everyone was probably posting about it, but Netlify, where I work acquired Gatsby! I’m excited for what this holds for the future of Netlify and Gatsby. Composable web ftw!
• This is one of the best things I’ve read in a while. The case for frameworks by my co-worker Laurie Voss, a.k.a. @seldo. It’s a bit of a long read, but very much worth it.
• Congrats to the Hydrogen team! Hydrogen is now using Remix. For the full update, check out the Hydrogen Updates page.

I got a big piece of work merged that will enable people to use Remix with Netlify Edge Functions. This already existed, but it was using an experimental branch of Remix dating from last year. There’s still another piece, but it’s getting close!
