it's really fucking hard to find competent engineers.
i've interviewed about 20 cs majors who claim to be experts at typescript and only 3 of them have been able to explain what the purpose of useState is (not trolling).
TypeScript *earth-shattering* excitement 😉
The TypeScript team have rewritten the compiler in Go in order to optimize performance 🎉
🔹 10x faster type-checking 🔥
🔹 Uses significantly less memory
This will hugely improve TypeScript authoring & compilation experience.
We just released the beta for TypeScript 5.8! This release brings support for Node.js' require(ESM), smarter/safer checks for functions using advanced types, a few great optimizations for editor scenarios, and more. Give it a try!

most goated functional programming playlist i've found. Have went through halfway through this and it's better than any book or any other material i've interacted with.

I just shipped a new library 🤯
Announcing @total-typescript/tsconfig 🚀🚀
My recommended tsconfig.json is a single import away.
ALT {
// For an app, transpiled with
// tsc, that runs in the DOM:
"extends": "@total-typescript/tsconfig/tsc/dom/app"
}
{
// For a library, with an external bundler
// that doesn't run in the DOM
"extends": "@total-typescript/tsconfig/bundler/library/no-dom"
}
MDXTS 0.16.0 was just released and it's the best version yet 🚀
The CodeBlock component was fully rewritten with minimal breaking changes and now exposes four new descendant components:
- LineHighlights
- LineNumbers
- Tokens
- Toolbar
You get all of the same type-checking and quick info benefits while being able to fully override the CodeBlock component. The examples have also been updated to showcase its flexibility.

I had an incredible time speaking about property-based testing (e2e tests) at @WrocTypeScript yesterday! It was an outstanding meetup and wonderful networking afterwards.
Let me know if you'd like to see a longer version of my talk!
