Express API Testing
Last but not least important are ava, uvu and tape; they are a really light and fast test runners.

Vitest: A Vite-native unit test framework. (alternative: Jest, uvu)

SvelteKit uvu Testing: Fast Component Unit Tests
Most important here is not to forget to include test.run() at the end… I’ve done that a few times 😅. Notice how we are able to use aliases in lines 1–3. You can see the full range of assert methods available in the uvu docs.

Creating a Chai like assertion library using proxies
For the past few weeks I’ve taken the (arguably pointless) work of migrating Felte from using Jest to uvu. This is a really tedious work by itself, but one of details that would have made this work even more tedious is that Jest prefers assertions to the style of expect(…).toBe* while uvu gives you freedom to choose any assertion library, although there’s an official uvu/assert module that comes with assertions to the style of assert.is(value, expected).

Test Coverage in Svelte
Hello everyone, I'm using uvu for testing. And installed c8 for coverage. Yet it doesn't seem to be able to pick up test .svelte files. Does anyone knows how to achieve this or any other way of getting .svelte files coverage? Thanks

Chaijs.com just let their domain expire
I really enjoy Ava [1] or anything assert-tape-like [2]. "uvu" [3] is getting a lot of love lately, but it's very feature limited and much of it's touted advantages are at the detriment to feature set.

Jest is great for front-end (or full stack integration) testing, but I feel it's specialized for that use-case and doesn't always play nice with backend/middle-tier testing needs.

Why Jest is not for me
For Node, I lean towards UVU by @lukeed due to its simplicity. Its lightweight, fast, supports ESM out of the box. It feels like an easier to setup modern Mocha (without the wide array of plugins).

Use Notion as your CMS along with Next.js
During my search for deploying Lambdas via GitHub actions, I came across a tutorial that utilized ncc for converting TypeScript and bundling. While ncc is effective, I discovered esbuild, which proved to be significantly faster and perfectly suited to my requirements.

⏰ It’s time to talk about Import Map, Micro Frontend, and Nx Monorepo
The advent of esbuild, the native support for ES Modules in browsers, the widespread adoption of import map, the emergence of tools like Native Federation, and the Nx ecosystem all combine to forge a flexible and well-maintained Micro Frontend Architecture.

Build a Vite 5 backend integration with Flask
Unlike Webpack, the Vite DevServer only compiles files when they are requested. It leverages ES module imports, which allow JS files to import other files without needing to bundle them together during development. When one file changes, only that file needs to be re-compiled, and the rest can remain unchanged. Project files are compiled with Rollup.js. Third-party dependencies in node_modules are pre-compiled using the ultra-fast esbuild bundler for maximum speed, and they are cached until the dependency version changes. Vite also provides a client script for hot module reloading.

How to run TypeScript natively in Node.js with TSX
TSX is the newest and most improved version of our ts-node, using ESBuild to transpile TS files to JS very quickly. The most interesting part is that TSX was developed to be a complete replacement for Node, so you can actually use TSX as a TypeScript REPL, if you install it globally with npm i -g tsx, just run tsx in your terminal and you can write TSX natively. But what's even cooler is that you can load TSX for all TypeScript files using --loader tsx when you run your file. For example, let's say we have this file called index.ts:
