Intro

A lot of links this week as I’m pursuing an inbox-zero (for the 912890th time).

Links

  • The Passion Paradox

    This one “hit home” as some say. It’s a must-read.

  • Who Can Use

    A tool that brings attention and understanding to how color contrast can affect different people with visual impairments.

  • Monorepo explained

    A site with an in-depth explanation of what a monorepo is, including tools and what features they support - very in-depth indeed.

  • Include diagrams in your Markdown files with Mermaid

    Mermaid is a JavaScript-based diagramming and charting tool that takes Markdown-inspired text definitions and creates diagrams dynamically in the browser.

    Thanks Emerson Laurentino for this link.

  • Lightning Memory-Mapped Database

    A fast, memory-efficient database with the read performance of a pure in-memory database but persisting on a disk. It’s used on Gatsby v4 for DSG (Deferred Static Generation).

  • Animate Anything Along an SVG Path

    Learn how to code creative animations using SVG paths and the getPointAtLength() function.

  • frontend-challenges

    Listing some playful open-source's challenges of companies to test your knowledge.

  • awesome-standalones

    A curated list of awesome framework-agnostic standalone web components.

  • blurhash

    A very compact (20-30 characters!) representation of a placeholder for an image.

  • human-id

    Generates human-readable strings by chaining common short words of the English language in a semi-meaningful way.

  • nice-modal-react

    A nice modal manager for React. It uses context to persist state of modals globally so that you can show/hide a modal easily either by the modal component or id.

  • pg-mem

    An in-memory Postgres DB instance for your unit tests.

🇧🇷 Em Português

  • Vídeo - As “más práticas” mais comuns no JavaScript

    O Lucas Santos criou um vídeo bem maneiro sobre o que evitar no JavaScript, e assim, evitar comportamentos inesperados nos nossos códigos. Há também um post com mais alguns exemplos no blog dele.
