- accordion
- tabs
- toggle
- tooltip
Building these takes a significant amount of effort. A lot of care goes into accessibility, sensible keyboard interactions, docs, api designβ¦
Itβs fun, I donβt mind doing it, but I also donβt mind affording rent too yaknow π
it's so over

- `element.memo` to cosplay react (and go 2x as fast)
- `element.supervised` so you can tell server components to get back to work if they fail
- tidier HTML generation
- improved hydration of SSR apps

Thank you to @crowdhailer.bsky.social for organizing this amazing event π
My first advice to junior contributors is to STOP using vibe coding for PRs. OSS is always about people more than about code. We don't need more code generated by LLM, we need more people who care.

Letβs hear from people that use Gleam in production!
@markholmes.bsky.social of Williams & Holmes, LLC:
βWhatβs so great about Gleam isnβt how fast and simple it is to build things βalthough that is trueβ but how easy it is to come back later and refactor!β
It's amazing how often flixbus has saved me after DB just gave up

If you're there say hi tomorrow!
VSCode can offer JavaScript refactorings which take additional input from the user (see the first gif, it takes a new name).
We want to have similar for Gleam, but we can't work out a way to do this with language server protocol. Is it possible? Help! π
