Useful thanks! The name has kept me away from trying it or understanding it when quickly skimming docs in the past.

what's the distinction between a startup and a small business?

Ah just checked docs that’s a CF limitation on analytics engine retention. What are you thinking, R2? D1?

Do you struggle with a 90 day limit? I’d find it hard to see seasonal trends etc with such a small window of history.

I have the uptime monitoring on my sites that were impacted. It was down for 1 hour 56 minutes

A would get lost with lots logic above it. B assuming it allows many params could be a confusing concept to some. C feels like there’s some grouping an ordering to it. I vote C

Thanks for the clarification, it makes sense to focus, I'll put more effort into lazy loading!

Congrats! Are there any codemods available for migration yet?

Good to know. It’s been fairly plain sailing sticking to as many unjs packages as possible!

Love this. Since I started using cloudflare workers a few years ago I’ve been nervous about every third party dep, wondering if would work with the runtime. I wonder if this could be enhanced to scan a GitHub repo to determine what node apis are being used and flag if it won’t work on that runtime?

cool demo! One bit of feedback, you could increase the opacity of the timeline of events at the top so I can remind myself all those steps I just took. Looks a little blank/orphaned at the end where you can't see the previous steps it connected to.

I think CapGo and Capawesome have been doing a great job of the OSS side while also having their own revenue streams from OSS (e.g live updates) to keep it sustainable. capgo.app/plugins/ & capawesome.io/plugins/

consider trying github.com/s00d/nuxt-i1... as a replacement for nuxt-i18n. I recently migrated and it's a lot more lightweight and performant!
GitHub - s00d/nuxt-i18n-micro: Nuxt I18n Micro is a fast, simple, and lightweight internationalization (i18n) module for Nuxt

I’ve been enjoying ghostty recently! Had to abandon fish many years ago because of its incompatibility with bash. Became really annoying not being able to copy and paste commands from the web

on CI/CD you should be running `npm ci` rather `i`. This means it will just install packages by reading from the lockfile, instead of trying to work it out and generate a new lockfile like it does locally. As a result it's also much faster to install. docs.npmjs.com/cli/v11/comm...

Yeah I hated it too, but scroll to the bottom and click “customise and re-order” and move/hide all the categorisation you don’t care about and it’s usable again.

Yeah they are great, just wish they’d offer a London region!
