Woot, I’m in this documentary. So weird to talk about Angular days- feels so long ago now

Must reads for web developers - how modern browsers work:

1️⃣ bit.ly/browsers-pt1
2️⃣ bit.ly/browsers-pt2
3️⃣ bit.ly/browsers-pt3
4️⃣ bit.ly/browsers-pt4

and browser.engineering a free to read book on the topic

I know! It feels so weird

Life update: after almost 9 years, I'm leaving Google. It feels very bittersweet, as I've met and learned from so many lovely, smart people in my career here. But it's time to go. I'll be joining Airbnb in the new year.

Haha, appreciate you too @marktechson.com !!

I lot of folks joining so I made a starter pack. It’s non-exhaustive, I like too many people here. This should help get people going though:

go.bsky.app/QHsSenT

“SSR” or writing that out

Suggestion: If you are in a position to ensure that trans folks are able to work from locations where they feel safe, now is a good time to work on that.

Well, I'm finally seeing what this is all about. Not that I have anything to post at the moment.

So I will just leave this article here: https://dev.to/this-is-learning/javascript-frameworks-heading-into-2023-nln

If you have feedback for NgOptimizedImage, this poll is a great way to get it on our radar. Would be particularly interested in anything missing that would help folks migrate: https://twitter.com/angular/status/1678516387432771585?s=20

It’s nice when there is some narrative focus! So easy to get lost / bored in side quests

That’s a perfect candid photo! Seems like it was a hit :)

Better CSS inlining for SSR users is coming in Angular 16.1! We've worked with Angular to integrate a new version of Critters that improves runtime performance and adds flexibility to finetune the generated CSS.
