Why dont we simply persist state in local storage, instead of using global state management
it's not made up, feel free to look it up. In older versions if the site was in a private window, writing something to localStorage would throw an exception. Was a pain in the ass and caused a lot of bugs. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/71593 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17231508 https://github.com/marcuswestin/store.js/issues/42

Webpacker vs import maps : any thoughts ?
Some javascript libraries require you to configure them using webpack. For example, https://github.com/marcuswestin/store.js/ , if you want to use sessionstorage only without anything else. You need to rebuild the library using webpack. If you can tinker with building libraries and providing custom builds that suit your need and load them into importmap, then it is better to use importmap.

Are mixins shared/single instance, or one instance for each component that uses the mixin?
store is basically a localStorage wrapper. If you want your data to persist even if on page reload, you might consider using it.

Bun, JavaScript, and TCO
To use this in Bun, you’d have to start Bun with the environment variable “BUN_JSC_useDollarVM=1” and then $vm.createBuiltin(mySourceCodeString)
When using this intrinsic, if any of the arguments are incorrect or it cannot otherwise enable it, the entire process will probably crash. In debug builds of JSC it will have a nicer assertion failure but that is not enabled in release builds
Example code: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/17351231b4dedb62d81721...
also happy to answer any questions about Bun

Show HN: Rem: Remember Everything (open source)
Ah, good, let me introduce you to the wonderful world of the Chrome Devtools Protocol! (fka Chrome Remote Debugging Protocol)
I love this API for almost everything browser related. I built my RBI product atop this (BrowserBox: https://dosyago.com), and I think it's a drastically underrated API.
Also, it works out of the box in Edge, Brave, Chromium, and many parts of CRDP are supported by Firefox and Safari^1
