Trivia: This trademark issue is why the standardized form of JS is called ECMAScript.

Angular v16.0.0 should be launching sometime in May. If you are an angular developer, or considering angular for your next project, knowing these new features are essential. Some of these are long standing features request from the community. Some features (signal, and SSR) bring Angular to par with other modern frameworks. With these features and more coming in v17, modern angular would start looking a lot different from what it is right now. Given the amount the changes angular is bringing in, if we don’t keep ourselves up to date, we won't be able to take advantage of these new features, and our codebase may start looking like a legacy code very soon.

Turns out even Nintendo uses JavaScript. A developer discovered that 2015's Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars for the Wii U and 3DS was written with HTML and JavaScript under the hood and managed to build a shim to get it running in a normal browser.

Svelte 4 is here 🎉🎉

Time flies - Svelte 3 was released more than four years ago! In JavaScript-framework-time, that's eons. Svelte’s freshness has persisted throughout, but Node.js and browser APIs have evolved during that time and today we’re updating Svelte to take advantage of some of these improvements.

Svelte 4 is mainly a maintenance release, bumping minimum version requirements and tightening up the design in specific areas. It sets the stage for the next generation of Svelte to be released as Svelte 5 - we think you’ll love it.

We often romanticize the notion of programming, presenting it as an abstract form of art, a science, or even a form of magic.
The truth, however, is much more practical and grounded. Code, in its essence, is communication.
