I self-published Without a Dawn in May. I made zero compromises, and I couldn't be happier how it turned out: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... 💛💚
Unfortunately, I've had very little luck with exposure, including the gaming press. 😩

Write flat tests. No "describe", no scenario nesting, no beforeEach/afterEach hooks (as a rule). Each test case is self-contained, listing all the setup it needs. Use Symbol.dispose for reliable cleanup. Use granular test cases.
☝️ These things will make your tests shine.

"When you outsource the thinking, you outsource the learning. You don’t know your code. You’re babysitting it". Indeed, a very good read, harsh but realistic.
This blog is SO good at pointing out what should have been obvious about AI for coding (Copilot and others)
These tools are good for re-creating whatever they’ve been trained on.
They are not what will create the next, better generation of frameworks, libraries, technologies.

I've had the same conversation ~100 times in my career, and I'll never be convinced there's a good reason to give a component more responsibilities, rather than achieve the same result thru composition.
Gotten better at accepting it as a debate I won't win tho.

This makes your tests smart. Don't do that. Ever. Keep your tests as simple, straightforward, and expressive as possible. Especially if it means repeating things. Repeat them! Nothing beats a test that reads nicely.

After seeing the backlash to the recent React docs setup update, I've tackled it myself.
I've put up a PR that reworks the "Create" page with better explanations and a "Start from Scratch" section that recommends Vite + routers:

I think this should make everyone happy!

Tip: Chrome DevTools can emulate a focused page! Great for debugging elements that disappear when they lose focus.
