Two years ago I built a new router in my spare time to replace itty-router. We started adopting it gradually until it powered our entire backend.

Screenshot of an internal GitHub pull request titled 'Switch internal API over to new router', I opened 2 years ago.

Such a pity they didn't make this ergonomic form work out of the box. AbortController is such a good API, but not being able to unpack the only two methods on there really feels like a flaw in the design to me.

Unpacking `{ abort }` from AbortController does not work, because the method isn't bound to the class instance :(

Monument Valley 3 is so well done 😍 They really outdid themselves with this new version, and that’s a hard thing after the amazing first two versions. Still my favorite iPhone game ever made.

One of the lesser-known Raycast features that is absolutely fantastic is Window Management. Really love these keyboard shortcuts to quickly position the active window 🫶
