I can't believe we're almost in 2024! I think 2023 is finally catching up with me. Thursday, I was completely out of gas and felt a little run-down, so I took it easy the rest of the day. Looking to finish off 2023 strong. 💪

With that, another week, another newsletter. Let's get to it!

Around the Web

• Supabase dropped a great feature at their latest launch week. You can now branch databases. I know that I'll be leveraging this feature for some end-to-end testing work I'll be putting in place at OpenSauced.
• Corbin Crutchley dropped a great read, What is Reactivity?
• If you've ever encountered React hydration errors, this might be the tool you're looking for, builder.io's React Hydration Overlay. I know that I'll be taking this for a test drive.
• I love Andy Bell's work and content, and here's a great read on a new unit in CSS land, lh. Check out LH units are cool.
• Addy Osmani over on Threads had a great share, A non-trivial Movies app built in multiple frameworks. It's a movie app built in various frameworks and it's all open source. 👏

Fun Stuff

This cracked me up. Thanks for sharing on X Seb Lorber! 🤣

Shameless Plugs

This week on nickyt.live, I got to hang with Ray Deck (@rhdeck), founder of statechange.ai. We discussed low code tooling, AI, all the things.

I dropped probably what will be my last blog post of the year. If you're looking to move to Vitest from Jest for your React project, look no further:

Migrating from Jest to Vitest for your React Application

The latest Jamstack Radio podcast episode dropped this week, and I was the guest. We discussed all things Next.js, frameworks, and the ever-evolving landscape of the JavaScript ecosystem.

Thanks for having me on @bdougieyo!

Lastly, I want to thank HeroDevs for becoming my first GitHub sponsor. I recently set up my GitHub sponsor page, so it's cool to see it seeing some action already. 💜

That's a wrap! Until the next one.
