CODE & TOOLS
🔩 Memize 2.0: Unabashedly-Barebones Memoization Library
The goal here is speed, and it claims to be the fastest option. It clocks in at just 0.3KB minified, too – unsurprising, since the implementation is very straightforward.

🔩 w2ui 2.0: A Framework Agnostic UI Library
Somehow we’d never encountered this before, but w2ui is a interesting, compact suite of common components including a grid, toolbar, tabs, and sidebar, that work with vanilla JS projects or those built with Angular, React, etc. Demos here.

🔩 Marked.js 5.0: A Fast Markdown Parser and Compiler
A low level Markdown compiler built for speed and available as a client-side library, server-side library, and even a CLI. v5.0 deprecates some options in favor of using external plugins. Here’s a live demo.

🔩Axios 1.4: Promise-Based HTTP Client for Browser and Node
A long standing project and still getting frequent updates despite rapidly being seen as the 'jQuery of HTTP request libraries.' If you need it, you’ll know.

🗞 Issue 2 / 05.05.2023
📄 Angular v16 Released
It is touted as the "biggest release since the initial rollout of Angular". The new version brings exciting features such as a preview of a new signals-based reactivity model (known as Angular Signals), better interoperability with RxJS, enhanced server-side rendering (SSR) and hydration, experimental esbuild support, Jest unit testing, and several other improvements.

📄 Qwik Reaches v1.0
In “other big JS frameworks that aren’t React” news, Qwik has hit a major milestone too. Qwik’s selling point remains performance through serving up as little code as needed on initial page load. “Think of it as streaming for your JavaScript,” they say. Nonetheless, you get the JSX, directory-based routing, and middleware options you may be familiar with.

IN BRIEF
📜 The Deno team just released fastwebsockets — but with a name like that, I have no idea what it does or at what speed it does it.
📜 Next 13.4 was just released to much fanfare. App Router is now stable, Turbopack is now in beta, and Server Actions are now in Alpha.
📜 Amelia Wattenberger wrote a good article about Why Chatbots Are Not the Future.
