Hah, this is great! Was complimented on the quality of my "Redux Testing" post, and I pointed it out it was just a transcript of me chatting. Reply: > Quite funny that your discord replies are better than some companies official documentation new personal slogan? :)
"The React community has had a growing sense of frustrations and disagreements on where React is headed, how it's developed, and the recommended approaches for using React, as well as the interactions between the React team and the community" Fantastic writeup by @acemarke
Just published Redux Toolkit v2.8.2 , which fixes a significant RTK Query bundle size regression that happened as part of 2.8.0's build and packaging changes. If you're in 2.8.0 or 2.8.1, please update to 2.8.2 right away! github.com/reduxjs/redux-…
Once again I reminded myself how awesome @replayio and time-travel debugging is. True game changer - I'd be hunting this bug for hooours without it.
This is real. It exists. Genuinely one of the most amazing things I've _ever_ seen done with code. Dimitri has pulled off an absolutely legendary feat! You _need_ to watch this and see how incredible it is and how much work it took to accomplish.
Doom now runs in @typescript types. What a journey this one's been.
We've also re-titled the new "Building your own React Framework" docs to "Building a React App from Scratch" to clarify that it covers many use cases for deciding to start with a build tool instead of a framework:
Based on feedback, we've added migration guides from Create React App to Vite, Parcel, or Rsbuild when a framework isn't the right fit for your use case, or you prefer to continue building your own framework:
It's 2025 and the React docs still don't show Vite + vite-react as a 1st class valid target despite an ocean of developers still using CRA for SPAs likely never caring in the slightest what blessed fullstack meta framework is the "idiomatic" way to use react.
There's a gigantic thread over at the Butterfly site where people are again trying to officially deprecate / fix / whatever create-react-app. @theo was even mentioned a few times 😂
