🤟 Node.js Becomes a First-Class Citizen in Microsoft Aspire

Aspire is a Microsoft framework for orchestrating the development and deployment of distributed applications. Originally just targeting .NET, the new Aspire 13 makes JavaScript a first-class citizen, so you can now run Vite, Node.js, and full-stack JS apps with service discovery, built-in telemetry, and production-ready containers.

👀 Superdiff 4.0: Compares Arrays or Objects and Returns a Diff

Got two similar objects or arrays and want to see the underlying differences? Superdiff has been around a while, but recent updates boost performance, add support for streamed input and using a worker for more efficient diffing in a background thread. The project now has a handy documentation site too.
