📣 responsive-image.dev now ships with a native Vue.js image component to render responsive images! Use it with the @vite.dev plugin (or webpack) to process local images in your @vuejs.org or @nuxt.com app, with support for modern formats, image transformations and LQIP, or load from image CDNs.

Ever heard of ThumbHash? It's a great way to encode a blurry placeholder image into just a few bytes, 28 here. Like BlurHash but better visual quality! Available now in responsive-image.dev for @vite.dev or webpack plugins and image components for @emberjs.com @lit.dev @solidjs.com and @svelte.dev!

Just published a quick writeup of impl work I've been doing lately for Polaris. TL;DR - Top-level `renderComponent` API - Runtime template compiler (for REPLs) - Component inspector fixes for GJS - `this.#private` syntax - hash and array literal syntax
