    Next generation frontend tooling. It's fast!

    I've spent a lot of time building web apps using the old "save a change, restart the server, refresh the browser" loop. And if you have too, I don't have to tell you how hard it is to go back to that once you've seen the light of browser sync/hot reload/etc. One of the fastest build tools out right now is Vite, which is an absolute treat to use and I recommend you try it out if you haven't.

  • Tailwind CSS

    A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.

    But something else I (and a lot of other people) have been really excited about is TailwindCSS, which (among other things) offers fantastic developer experience. You rarely, if ever, have to write bespoke CSS, instead using Tailwind's plethora of utility classes to style your elements however you want. Writing frontend with Tailwind really feels like hitting the ground running - there's a lot of friction in writing CSS classes that for the most part is completely taken care of by Tailwind.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
