  1. devbox

    Instant, easy, and predictable development environments

    I started with a new devbox because I like a clean install like that without requiring to run a whole container. Now, I wanted pick something I felt nice about to work with. Here were the choices in my head -

  3. growthbook

    Open Source Feature Flagging and A/B Testing Platform

    I first tried to use growthbook. They had only react support. I thought - I could use the js sdk and work around it. Ok fine. It seemed a bit complicated to use in terms of their UI. Okay fine, I try to find an easier one maybe I can self-host. That way I could even put it behind cloudflare CDN and use caching on it and clever cache-busting when I change values could help propagate changes. Okay fine I have a plan. I ended up going with Flagsmith instead. It was even easier. Perfect.

  6. Preact

    ⚛️ Fast 3kB React alternative with the same modern API. Components & Virtual DOM.

    how do I retro-fit nextjs instructions on the Flagsmith website to fit Deno's fresh over preact?

  7. pico

    Minimal CSS Framework for semantic HTML

    I also needed a CSS framework but I did not want to think too much. So I found the smallest usable one for me - pico.css! it was so easy and it got the job done. By far the direction I am heading seems great!

  8. node

    Node.js JavaScript runtime ✨🐢🚀✨

    nodejs 😔

  11. deno

    A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.

    I thought - YOLO, lets go deno! 🦖. I loved how it is an all in one tool with fmt, lint, test, and what not. I wanted that. Okay so I decided to use fresh over deno because its native to deno, right?
