docker just solved the MCP server chaos ๐Ÿ”ฅ

โ—† centralized catalog with verified servers
โ—† one-click setup (no more random uvx commands)
โ—† secure credential storage + containerized runtime

was tired of multiple client configs and this fixes things ๐Ÿ‘‡

theres a lot of developers out there (mainly in YT comments) that need to get over React's popularity

it won. stop being mad. its not perfect either.

you can still use your other frameworks, and if your job forces you to use react get over it.

You start with coca-cola, you make coca-cola 2, realise it should just be the coca-cola. Work is complete, so you go off and make pepsi.

I think the team have shipped enough good things that we can give them so trust that this will be well thought out. Lets wait and see!

incredibly curious to see what "model-first development" look like...

seems like the remix team will be inventing it

time will tell but the team has a great track record so im excited

new react component dropping (experimental)

โœ… preserves state
โœ… pre-renders at low priority
โœ… mounts effects when visible, cleans up effects when hidden.

good for pre-rendering UI for snappy load times and saving state in components easily ๐Ÿ’ช

oRPC is what I wanted tRPC to be ๐Ÿ”ฅ

โœ… First-class OpenAPI (no more plugins!)
โœ… Contract-first development
โœ… Built-in file handling
โœ… Server Actions support

ArkType features that made me fall in love:

๐Ÿ”น TypeScript based syntax
๐Ÿ”น Transform data while validating easily
๐Ÿ”น Human-readable, easily customisable error messages
๐Ÿ”น Pattern matching (like ts-pattern)
๐Ÿ”น Zero dependencies = super lightweight
