Vercel supporting diverse framework ecosystems while letting teams keep their autonomy? That's how you do open source investment right ๐Ÿ‘

Also this week:
๐Ÿ”ฅ @typescriptlang.org 5.9 Beta with import defer
๐Ÿ”ฅ @deno.land 2.4 brings back bundle command
๐Ÿ”ฅ @biomejs.dev v2.1 faster scanner
๐Ÿ”ฅ AI SDK 5 going framework-agnostic

This signals something bigger: we're moving from "one framework to rule them all" to "many frameworks, one platform."
Vercel isn't trying to kill Nuxt for Next.js - they're betting devs want choice in tools but consistency in deployment ๐Ÿš€

The community reaction was mixed (as expected), but Daniel Roe said it perfectly: "Nuxt's independence as a framework is absolutely essential to me, and that's something Vercel have committed to."
Competition breeds innovation - even within the same company ๐Ÿ’ช

What I love about this move:
โœ… Nuxt keeps its independence & open governance
โœ… Team gets sustainable funding (finally!)
โœ… Nuxt UI Pro going FREE for everyone
โœ… Self-hostable Nuxt Studio coming
โœ… No vendor lock-in promises
This isn't acquisition, it's investment in the ecosystem ๐ŸŒฑ

The biggest news this week? @nuxtlabs.com just joined @vercel.com, and honestly, this feels like open source done RIGHT ๐ŸŽฏ

The core team (Daniel Roe, Sรฉbastien Chopin, Pooya Parsa, Anthony Fu) gets full-time funding while Nuxt stays independent with MIT license โ˜•

Had an amazing chat with @danielroe.dev (@nuxt.com core team lead) about something we all use but rarely optimize properly: web fonts.

Thank you for this episode, I really enjoyed it!
@weeklybrew.dev and @ryansolid.bsky.social

Now I have questions about handling arrays of signals or signals of arrays. That's missing for me in all of the signals discussions. The higher order patterns in signal world.
