Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 19/03/2025What's currently the fastest way to transpile TS to individual JS files without type checking? We can't just strip types because we use enums. 221
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 13/03/2025Why "Choose the right tool for the right job" might be true, but unhelpful (and why choosing the right programming language is less important than people think): 030
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 19/02/2025I agree! Comments should mostly explain the Why, not the What 😃 000
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 05/02/2025JavaScript devs: when your backend is written in another language and it returns snake_case, do you transform them to camelCase or keep them as they are? 220
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 27/01/2025I really like this form of collaboration among "competitors" 👍 041
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 26/01/2025Now with erasableSyntaxOnly I‘m asking myself: What‘s a good alternative to enums? Union types are ok, but I personally prefer to reference the enum options (and also be able to count remaining references). Is there a good package that solves enums on runtime? 201
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 01/01/2025I know, it‘s stupid, but I think about this every time I see code that relies on 4 digit years 😅 050
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 11/12/2024Does anyone have practical exp with TS's flag exactOptionalPropertyTypes? E.g. @mattpocock.com? Is it worth the effort? It sounds sensible in theory, but in practice it complains a lot about unproblematic code. I'm considering turning it off again (or maybe I need to adjust my coding style 😃) 120
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 07/12/2024Quick, everyone: we can now listen to all the bad music we didn’t dare to because of Spotify wrapped. 020

Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 27/11/2024Still thinking about this incredible blog post by tim urban: waitbutwhy.com/2015/12/the-... Makes me think about spending my time more consciously.waitbutwhy.comThe Tail End — Wait But WhyNo matter what your age, you may, without realizing it, be enjoying the very last chapter of the relationships that matter most to you.

One thing I hear with new speakers a lot is that they don't think they can offer anything I think you can 👇 2127
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 13/11/2024Highly recommended: "An app can be a home-cooked meal" (www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-c... via @bradfrost.bsky.social) I can totally relate to this approach. Feels good not to monetize everything 😃robinsloan.comAn app can be a home-cooked mealI made a messaging app for my family and my family only. 000
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 10/11/2024I wonder if the current migration from Twitter to 🦋 is observable in Twitter's metrics. Feels massive in my bubble 🫧 030
Reposted by Johannes EwaldEinar W. Høst @einarwh.bsky.social · 09/11/2024Modern software: Getting started with the Froob framework. To run Froob, you can use Biddle or Sproxnut. If you use Sproxnut, you'll also want to install a Grattle-handler like Lux or Jujuba. It is also possible to run Froob in open mode under Rattlefunk. This is preferable in some scenarios. 41877118

Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 08/11/2024I feel like this should be highlighted in the UI. A lot of people (myself included) are just not used to open platforms and their implications. @support.bsky.team 000
Johannes Ewald @johannesewald.de · 08/11/2024Tried to cross-publish a package on NPM *and* Github package registry using semantic-release. For a couple of hours… …and failed 😞 Seems to be impossible with the latest version. 000
