🧵2/3 The new Wireit "service" setting lets you orchestrate servers and other long-running processes. When used as a dependency, services start up and shut down as needed — like a server during an e2e test. When run directly, services keep running across watch mode iterations.

🧵3/3 The new Wireit "cascade" setting gives you more control over when scripts rerun/restart. Wireit errs towards rerunning whenever a dependency changes. But this isn't always optimal, e.g. if only a subset of output is used, or if new assets don't require a server restart.

💙 lit.dev's interactive samples and tutorials are - of course - #builtWithLit and usable on any website with no special server required. To add code editing to your site, check out the Playground Elements repo ↓ goo.gle/3TyOKJW

lit-html just passed 1M npm downloads a week 🥳 The template library that grew into Lit is now used to build Chrome OS and DevTools, Photoshop, Reddit, The Internet Archive and much more... It's a fun ride with a great team and community! Looking forward to 2M/w next year!

Thank you @grumpygamer and @phrenopolis and the whole @terribletoybox team! I learned to read by playing the Secret of Monkey Island as a kid on Atari ST (a benefit of the pre-talkie era!) So far I am loving Return, it makes me feel like a kid again.

Excited to share a new project I've been working on: github.com/google/wireit It's a build tool for npm scripts that gives you a dependency graph, incremental build, watch mode, and caching on GitHub Actions — but all using the exact same "npm run" commands you already use.
