πŸ‹ Lemons, Pokemon cards and Anime

Hello there!

I came down with a cold last week, and have been catching up with all the goodness that was announced at the Next.js conf! It looks like the JS community has quite never been this active in some time, what a time to be a part of this transformation that we’re seeing! πŸ˜… With React server components becoming a reality, and Remix becoming a part of Shopify and tooling like Turbopack and Vite becoming more mainstream, we’re all in for a ride.

Also, wow, it’s already November?! Anyway, let’s get on with this week!
