@zachleat/line-numbers@1.0.3

A web component to add line numbers next to various HTML elements.

does this need to say “professional vibe coding” or “vibe coding at work” or do we understand it without those qualifiers

vibe coding is a recession indicator

I’m reminded that Meta provided Facebook Messenger messages to law enforcement and helped put this Nebraska woman in jail for two years: www.npr.org/2022/08/12/1...

Think about what Meta could provide to law enforcement with private web browsing activity.

The US needs good data privacy legislation.

Web sites with a Facebook pixel were communicating with local native apps (Instagram, Facebook, maybe WhatsApp) to log (and attribute) incognito web browsing activity.

Decoupled this one right out of @11ty.dev’s new demo/playground component: bsky.app/profile/11ty...

Try out the new interactive Playground component on the docs home page: www.11ty.dev#try-eleventy...

That’s right: we’re running Eleventy in the build and in the browser. This unlocks many more exciting options for Eleventy projects — stay tuned!

it’s *wild* that a business that sells to developers would directly insult developers on the company blog

When leadership (in a software company or community) shows you that it is not a welcoming space for productive and critical discussions (critique of LLMs in the flavor of today), it’s time to take some advice from @dasharez0ne.bsky.social.

Toxic spaces aren’t worth your time.

New release: Eleventy v3.1.1 (we fixed some things)

A historical reference of React criticism (2023)

defund react

Looks like I can add @rich-harris.dev to this 11 year compendium of React criticism: www.zachleat.com/web/react-cr...

We knew it was slow in 2014 and it’s still slow in 2025.

With hardware improvements it almost makes you wonder if 2014 React is faster than 2025 React 👀

Quoted post (unavailable)

The best path forward is to empower developers to write HTML and CSS in the editor of their choosing. Any abstraction that hampers that (whether it’s a web site builder or ✨Tailwind✨) has (in my experience) inhibited productivity and increased long-term maintenance costs.

The most disappointing thing about Figma sites is that they fell into the same trap as almost every other website builder.

They assumed (arrogantly) that HTML and CSS are over engineered and that they can make it much simpler.

They are not alone. So many tools before them has done the same.

the time for modern frameworks is over. we’re only doing antique frameworks now

@keith where is your real account keith!! I was following you 4 times 😅

Just how portable is your web site? Could you switch hosting providers in an hour? In a day? Would it take you a week?

You should think about it.

I realize this is a super niche question but does anyone know *why* the Arc browser deprecated the Boost sharing feature?

web components are dead? no. they have ascended to immortality — this mortal coil but a pale whisper to the wild invigorate breath, warming those who continue long beyond our meager lifespan

I’m sorry — unfortunately we decided to go with someone that has been claiming web components are dead for 13 years and it says here on your CV that you only have 9 years of experience with that

the final form of dismiss is “suggest less”

oh wow, a company that just did layoffs also released some cool stuff that I would absolutely otherwise share but now I didn’t see nothin

what tech companies *haven’t* done layoffs in the last 3 years? it’s time for a goodwill thread

no one is getting more hinged

not many folks used the very first version of eleventy on 8″ floppy

I went to figure out why the gatsbyjs.com lighthouse performance score had jumped up ~10 points in the last 24 hours and found that Google Tag Manager was 404-ing 😅

Another update: the socket.dev folks fixed this on their end almost immediately but this has now also been fixed upstream in `grype` too: https://github.com/anchore/grype/issues/1701

@chrisw_b

have you ever *really* stopped to think about how wild it is that [].join("\n") returns "" — what is it joining??

“A is broken!” says major retailer of A.

apropos of nothing we are also happy to announce that we’ve renamed A to B which is very fortunately (and coincidentally) *NOT* broken!

there has never been a better time for you — the consumer — to be alive. A is B now and all of the problems with A no longer exist

has anyone done “stick that in your pope and smoke it” yet

you’re trying to tell me that no one uses the phrase “meatballs to the wall”

That https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SubtleCrypto/digest has no synchronous API is causing me pain 😭

Though the root problem is that async constructors in JavaScript aren’t allowed — life would be so much easier with that feature 😭😭

my favorite part of that project is that it applies the primary color via <meta name="theme-color" content> so in Safari the whole browser chrome matches up 🥰
