Just shipped type-safe regex in @wollybeard/kit using Arkregex ⚡ github.com/jasonkuhrt/k.... Arkregex comes from the great David Blass who is also working on @arktype.io. What a great quality of life improvement, thanks David! #types #regexp #typescript

Flo end is a complex command doing quite a few things. It now has a dry run to help gain confidence before carrying out its slew of side effects. Learn more at: github.com/jasonkuhrt/f... #claude #cli #fish #workflow

Feels like we’re at the point now with Siri where it’s just pure brand damage for Apple. At least in our home Siri on HomePods are a daily joke, total ineptitude. Privacy aside, if only I could have them IO with my Claude account. #siri #apple

I do like that @chadtmiller.com building it appears to like @graphql.org, @gleam.run, and hiking (how great is it that there's no @-mention for that :) which is starting to be some sort of overlap with my life, now wondering if he has ADHD, two kids, and a love for type safety as well 😆 👋

... succumb to entropy against civility and user experience but I want to be wrong, @bsky.app seems to be progressing ok for example (not paying so much attention but that's kind of the point, I pay no attention to/on X but still readily have negative experiences there), but its still early.

Cool to see this @grain.social. This year I migrated off of Instagram to my personal website kuhrt.me/capturing. But I do enjoy a healthy social experience. Maybe that's what Grain is/will be/remain as :). I am sceptical that pretty much any social platform of sufficient "success" (scale) will ...

... don't necessarily see a fork in the road, but instead potential for both, expressive with _rigid presets_. You can think of a linter for example as a preset for a language. Ideally/But preset construction/sharing/use cannot be an afterthought, must be first class, seamless, near trivial. #api

On design: Thinking of 'One obvious way' versus 'expressiveness' (e.g. Python versus Ruby), not as a dichotomy but as a continuum, have the expressiveness AND then allow layering on the 'obvious way' for <thing> ([mono]repo, package, file, block, ...). In other words when designing an interface, ...

Yeah this strikes me as something that should be possible already via some local lsp server queries. I'm surprised its not done yet, tempting project but I cannot believe no one(s) is actively solving this, intersection of AI tooling and roughly the most popular language in the world.

I would appreciate a TypeScript LSP MCP, Claude Code could turn a laborious non-deterministic process (easily 1+ minutes on large code bases) of identifier renames into a few seconds deterministic process. For now I try to do that for Claude but steals some degree of flow from me.

Thank you LambaTest for becoming Graffle's first recurring monthly sponsor ❤️! I couldn't be more delighted 🍻. Check them out at www.lambdatest.com.

Finally, If you know of someone(s) this might be relevant for, please share! Thanks!

striving to achieve world class developer experiences (DX) and want help I would love to talk! More generally, If you’re building something ambitious with Effect and/or take quality TypeScript seriously (or want to), I would love to talk too.

TIL! How subtle is that, damn. Seems like a good candidate for a lint rule.

Autotest: Vitest plugin for automated testing at type and term levels · Issue #60 · jasonkuhrt/kit

It's been a rewarding challenge to push my skills on this project and achieve things that a year ago I would have seen as daunting or impossible. More than once I've felt a previous sense of plateau in skills shatter, for example an increase of flow states I can enjoy with the TS compiler 🌊.

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This documents GQL TS LSP Setup for those using native GQL syntax. Kudos to @kitten.sh et al who made and maintain that! So thanks to that, one gets autocomplete with whichever syntax they use. Meanwhile Graffle string parsing ensures their symmetric type safety to.

LSP Setup | Graffle

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers a generator feature issue dating 1+ years ago but was realized only days ago. I'm excited for this addition and the DX unlock it gives for cases that need it, aliasing/grouping slicing and dicing the schema interface to fit your needs!

Minimalist Progressively Type Safe GraphQL Client For JavaScript.

Domains | Graffle

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers custom scalars which is a cool GQL feature but typically a PITA to actually realize in practice. Graffle goes the extra miles to make it hum. It is such a particular, perennial and cross cutting topic in GQL that I gave it a page its own too.

Custom Scalars | Graffle

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers variable hoisting which is worth a dedicated page because of the novel concepts used to model GQL document variables in a TS context. As far as I know there's nothing else in the ecosystem as thoughtful with its variable handling as this.

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers actually doing something useful with those built documents! It also shows off the fancy ergonomics of how variables and operation names are fully accounted for in a, again, progressive way (e.g. api simplifies when only one operation etc.)

Sending | Graffle

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers the value-add that generator brings. Until a few weeks ago the generator was needed for any builder but now we have a schemaless mode that is enhanced by generator! Progressive enhancement is a key DX pillar and I think this hits it.

Generator | Graffle

graffle.js.org/guides/docum... - This covers the document builder at its base, focusing on its syntax. I use tabs to make it easy to compare to how native GraphQL looks. I'm happy with how well my design has held up to native, often being only mildly more verbose (:true bits are main culprit)

Static | Graffle

I've been making big strides with Graffle the past couple weeks, such as around the static builder and support for variables, docs, and type level string parser. Accordingly I revamped docs to cover everything one should need to know about these features. Here's a rundown:

A good friend mentioned something similar happening to him in the past and it somehow comforted me to know these things happen not just to me haha. I have been invited to re-record my talk for inclusion to the playlist on Youtube so might do that in the coming month.

So last month I gave two talks at GraphQL Conf in Amsterdam and it was a lot of fun and challenge for me but unfortunately a glitch means my talk on Polen (polen.js.org) will never see the light of day, though my shorter talk on Graffle (graffle.js.org) will.

I've seen lots of agentic workflow tools popping up this year. I started my own called flo github.com/jasonkuhrt/flo :) -- Starting simple but will iterate over time. So far combines use of Claude Code, GitHub issues, Git worktrees, and some naming conventions.
