devtools-frontend VS TypeScript

You can paste that curl command into https://curlconverter.com/wget/ to turn it into a Wget command.

> The reason there isn't a "Copy as wget" option, I think, is the level of control that curl allows so the request can be tailored to exactly mimic the browser.

This is not true. You can read the code that generates the curl command and it's pretty straightforward:

https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/c9a...

The arguments it uses are --url, --data-raw, -X/--request, -H/--header, --compressed and --insecure, all of which Wget has an analog of. I think the reason is that they don't care to do it and/or they don't want to make that dropdown menu 30 entries long.

The GitHub mirror of the Chrome DevTools repo has the node_modules folder here: https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/mai...

But there is nuance (there always is...), the README file in node_modules is here: https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/mai... - and it makes it clear the only NPM dependencies used by the build-system or infrastructure is meant to be checked-in. Other NPM packages should not.

In conclusion: the linked blog-article is clickbait that misrepresents how the Chrome team manages their dependencies.

While you are correct about Google's monorepository, the author works on Chrome DevTools. That repository is open-source and standalone: https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend

What's new in DevTools (Chrome 95).

2 known issues:

- DevTools doesn't display the viewport. I'm not sure if this is due to a change in the latest Chrome to which I just updated (~90) or because I broke my serving of it by updating it. A workaround will be serving a static snapshot of the devtools front-end rather than just (simply, as I'm doing right now) pulling it out of Chrome's RDP endpoint each time. This may take some time to do.

- DevTools doesn't seem to work on iOS (as I've tested it, Safari or Chrome).

- There are many more issues, and a lot, but not all, of them are edge cases but they'll be fixed eventually.

More bug reports, UI/UX tips and advice, and other feedback are very welcome! Unfortunately the whole app is not open source but some parts are open source, namely, the virtualized browser[0], and the devtools-front-end[1].

Regular expressions are part of the language, so it's not so unreasonable that TypeScript should parse them and take their semantics into account. Indeed, TypeScript 5.5 will include [new support for syntax checking of regular expressions](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/55600), and presumably they'll eventually be able to solve the problem the GP highlighted on top of those foundations.

Dedicated syntax for creating unique subsets of a type that denote a particular refinement is a longstanding ask[2] - and very useful, we've experimented with implementations.[3]

I don't think it has any relation to runtime type checking at all. It's refinement types, [4] or newtypes[5] depending on the details and how you shape it.

Learning Curve and Developer Tooling sCrypt is an embedded Domain Specific Language (eDSL) based on TypeScript. It is strictly a subset of TypeScript, so all sCrypt code is valid TypeScript. TypeScript is chosen as the host language because it provides an easy, familiar language (JavaScript), but with type safety. There’s an abundance of learning materials available for TypeScript and thus sCrypt, including online tutorials, courses, documentation, and community support. This makes it relatively easy for beginners to start learning. It also has a vast ecosystem with numerous libraries and frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue) that can simplify development and integration with Web2 applications.

As a JavaScript or TypeScript developer, you might have come across the terms type and interface when working with complex data structures or defining custom types. While both serve similar purposes, they have distinct characteristics that influence when to use them. In this blog post, we'll delve into the differences between types and interfaces in TypeScript, providing examples to aid your understanding.

TypeScript helps you in many ways in the context of a JavaScript app. It makes it easier to consume interfaces of any type.

In this guide, we'll be extracting information from Amazon product pages using the power of TypeScript in combination with the Cheerio and Crawlee libraries. We'll explore how to retrieve and extract detailed product data such as titles, prices, image URLs, and more from Amazon's vast marketplace. We'll also discuss handling potential blocking issues that may arise during the scraping process.
