I'd recommend looking into @tanstack.com, particularly TanStack Query.

It simplifies complex state management and data fetching patterns. Another great benefit is that many parts are composable, makes it easy to adapt to your specific needs.

I wouldn't build a project w/o it

Fair enough. Thank you for your service and best of luck going forward!

I assume this means that maintenance is functionally "on hold" for the foreseeable future?

I know its likely not a priority of the current admin, but I also wasn't sure what that meant for any existing contracts/budgets. Or if that has all collapsed or run out at this point

Apologies if this isnt the best thread, but I've noticed that USWDS does appear be a solo effort (which i deeply appreciate!) and many of the long time Bixal maintainers have moved on. Any ideas what is to become of the USWDS?

I have seen progress on USWDS Elements, which seems hopeful

Basically, less "well, I think some parents have some good points about trans students" and more "shut the fuck up about children's genitals, you creep."

Harvard Law Library has created a brilliant website for their Data.gov archiveโ€”there's a static S3-style data store, and the front-end is a DuckDB-Wasm in-browser database using HTTP range requests to retrieve the needed data. In short, there's...no website? Kind of?

DHH Is Way Worse Than I Thought | jakelazaroff.com DHH's politics are not normal. Maybe they used to be, I don't know, but as of right now the dude is_way outside of what most people would consider moral or acceptable.

show this to anyone else you know who also assumed DHH was just a normal conservative dude rather than a raging white supremacist lunatic

Itโ€™s going to break your heart how many people you know, love, and respect will turn out to be cowards. Prepare yourself as best you can. You are not alone, but you are your own center. Be a strong center.

I'm trying to build a "Maine software engineer" Bluesky starter pack! If you you're a software engineer in Maine, send me a message.

I think I have to call it here... I tried to justify that I'm using resources without handing over my credit card, but I can't, in good conscience, continue to support this organization in any way.

Quite frankly, on top of it all, I find the bootlicking utterly pathetic

Ah! A mob of people demanding dignity and respect for others!

Ironically, it's actually *really* easy to not get involved, but these guys simply refuse to shut the fuck up.

If "punch a Nazi" feels like a threat to you personally, maybe it's time for some soul searching.

How come the anti-woke, free speech purists are the first ones to cry when they get called out?

Somehow they're both toughest and loudest, whiny victims ๐ŸŽป

"We will build it ourselves so we won't have any dependencies" I've seen that costly mistake way too often.

Building it yourself maybe doesn't add to the dependencies array but it's a dependency nonetheless! And no-one but your team to rely on for maintenance and expertise.

I was trying to work with 18F, but the timing didn't work out ๐Ÿ˜ž But since you can "just build things", here we are!

I've learned so, so much scouring the repo and using some new tools. I have a really exciting v2 coming soon. Can't wait to share!

Ha thank you! Former Fed and still a contractor, it started as an experiment after experiencing a few sharp edges with USWDS.

I really just wanted to make it easier for myself to build faster.

The DX and JIT nature of TW felt like a win/win.

Personally I've moved on to using @tanstack.com and @astro.build

I find the support of these tools, in the situations they're used, by the maintainers sickening.

Folks like @natemoo.re and the Astro community are inspiring and empathetic. Having basic human decency shouldnt be hard to come by...
