<wa-combobox allow-create multiple> is *rad* webawesome.com/docs/compone...

<wa-combobox> can pull options from your server now!

Set a dataSource callback, get debounced fetch + loading/error/empty slots, and improve performance by not shipping thousands of options in your DOM.

the awkward part of this post is that if these companies improve the performance of their websites it will change the meaning of the post (since those filmstrips update over time)

@11ty/font-awesome@2.0.0

Optimized per-page tree-shaken SVG spritesheets for Eleventy.

For reusable components: has anyone stress tested the seams around Light versus Shadow DOM?

Hypothetically: 20 light DOM nodes per instance versus 1 light DOM node (with 19 shadow DOM nodes) per instance. 40 vs. 1+39? and instances?

I don’t think I have a baseline intuition on the costs there.

@rest hey, sorry to bug you but I stumbled across your website when looking at https://www.speedlify.dev/site/www-troyv-dev/ and saw that you have about 45MB of mp3 that are loading on every visit and just wanted to make sure you aren’t paying for the bandwidth there! if that was intentional, ignore me!
