Coding 40h/week but your public GitHub graph is completely empty? @swyx.io as the guy who literally wrote the book on "learning in public", how do devs prove their worth when 90% of their actual startup work is locked in private repos? www.gitpulse.dev/profile/swyx...

two views from Anthropic 1. Claude Skills are for collaboration 2. Skills are for continual learning
A large presentation screen dominates the image, hanging in a modern glass-walled auditorium with tall windows, greenery outside, and wood-paneled ceiling beams above. Two presenters stand on a circular red carpet beneath the screen.

On the screen (pink slide):
At the top: “The Skills ecosystem” followed by “Enterprise & Team Skills.”
Two large rounded rectangles appear side by side:
	•	Left rectangle: light pink with a simple line icon of a briefcase. Beneath it: “Fortune 100 Org-wide Skills.”
	•	Right rectangle: light pink with a line icon of a laptop cursor on a screen. Beneath it: “Enterprise FinTech for 1000s of SWEs.”

Bottom-left corner of the slide shows the Anthropic logo.

Presenters:
On the left, a person with shoulder-length dark hair, glasses, a gray sweater, light pants, and sneakers. On the right, a person with short dark hair wearing a dark gray sweater and black pants. They stand in front of the screen facing the audience.

The setting is bright and spacious, with natural outdoor light filtering through the glass behind them.A large presentation slide fills most of the image, displayed in a modern glass-walled auditorium. Two presenters stand beneath it on a circular red carpet.

Slide content (pink background):

At the top, bold text reads:
“Skills are a concrete step towards continuous learning”

Below is a rising curved line from left to right, marked with three labeled milestones:
	•	DAY 1 — a small red icon with a white starburst. Text underneath:
“No skills”
“Intelligent”
	•	DAY 5 — the same icon, slightly larger. Text underneath:
“A few skills”
“Capable”
	•	DAY 30 — the icon again, larger and placed at the top-right of the curve. Text underneath:
“Many skills”
“Useful”

Bottom-left corner of the slide shows the Anthropic logo.

Presenters:
On the left, a person with glasses, a gray sweater, light pants, and sneakers holding a small device. On the right, a person with short dark hair, wearing a muted blue-gray sweater and dark pants, also holding a clicker. Behind them, tall glass windows reveal trees, greenery, and interior hallways.

Interesting post about this from @swyx.io and crew: www.latent.space/p/why-mcp-won It seems like the next step up from llmstxt.org I think the usefulness really depends on if you want repeatable output from your LLM or if you use the LLM to build repeatable process (like terraform for config).

@swyx.io pitched the "React distro" thesis a few years ago: www.swyx.io/react-distros I think it's a reasonable take / mindset. The issue is that the React team has effectively stopped supporting the way half the ecosystem uses React, docs/guidance-wise.

React knows which component instance it's rendering based on the current Fiber instance. That gets saved as a module-scoped variable in the hooks impl file, and the hook functions iterate through the list of hooks in a field on that Fiber. See @swyx.io 's "build hooks" talk: www.swyx.io/hooks
