⚛️ React 18 – Part 1: Concurrent Rendering
React’s next major version has now been out for a while. There’s a lot to unpack here, so we’ll do this in a few parts. Laying out the foundations for concurrent rendering seems to be the big thing to raise from this release of React. Building larger React applications has undoubtedly lead you to encounter blocked rendering issues at some point. React’s new concurrent rendering model aims to provide a smoother experience even for applications with a high number of state updates. The key here is interruptible rendering and a lot of behind the scenes magic.

🥞 Thin.dev – Thin.dev
IHP is a Haskell Web Framework we’ve stumbled upon a few times, but never had the pleasure to work with before. From Digitally Induced, the company behind this framework, comes Thin.dev. A batteries included web application backend for building Single Page Applications. Thin seems to provide a sturdy foundation for application development powered by IHP under the hood, with a much sleeker wrapper. Your favourite frontend framework in the frontend, fully-typed postgres definitions through Haskell in the backend.
⚡️ Vite.js – vitejs.dev
Ever been in a situation where starting your frontend application’s webpack dev-script takes a minute to get you started? We have. Vite is a next generation frontend toolset for building your frontend applications in a less painful fashion. I recently moved a medium sized project from Webpack to Vite, leading to a decrease in cold start buildtimes from 70 seconds down to 3. Might just be my old webpack configuration. But boy do I love it. Less time for fetching coffee in the morning though.
