Whenever I’m facing issues with vscode and prettier talking seconds or copy pasting taking too long, Zed is my go to. Very reliable and smooth

Where’s all the hype of bsky about openai’s image generation? It’s really really good and not a peep! Everybody is sharing studio ghibli images of themselves on twitter, creative ads too

A step in the right direction. Unfortunate that Vite is painted as “not for beginners”. Also, the ordering of frameworks matters and this makes Next.js effectively the default for anyone learning React.

Someone asked me a while ago how I host my Vite React app on Cloudflare Workers & static assets. So I wrote a guide on my blog about how to do just that (and Angular and Vue for good measure!) thomasgauvin.com/writing/how-...

How to host React, Angular, Vue and other single-page applications on Cloudflare Workers with static assets

I'm a product builder and web developer. I believe the web is the best distribution platform we have as developers to reach everyone across the world.

We finished rolling out edge caching for Hyperdrive earlier this month - cached queries are now up to 10x faster. This is reflected in an average 50% decrease in session duration for *all queries*! ⚡️ just landed it in the new Cloudflare changelog: developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne...

Thomas Gauvin @thomasgauvin.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

We made it a lot easier to connect to private databases from Cloudflare Hyperdrive using Tunnels, so you can build full stack apps on Workers with your existing databases! developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne... Demo doesn’t fit in 60 seconds, but it does fit in 2 minutes! x.com/thomasgauvin...

We just raised the Workers KV namespace limits for all Cloudflare accounts, from 200 to 1000 Folks had been running into those limits, especially teams building multi-tenant applications who split KV data by tenant. That’s now a thing of the past! developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne...

Workers KV namespace limits increased to 1000

I redesigned my simple web latency tester to make it look freaking cool w/ @protomaps.com x @maplibre.org globe view because why not? Developers deserve cool tools Try it out! (I bumped the included limits to 500 & you can select which regions to test from)

The new developments in LLM models is super exciting. Open-source models, from Llama to DeepSeek are pushing the envelope and making it better/faster/cheaper for developers to build their apps

What tool is everyone using to compare LLM models performance and pricing?

100

Thomas Gauvin @thomasgauvin.bsky.social · 27/12/2024

Add on top of this the fact that every LLM basically defaults to generating React + Tailwind and you start to realize the “moat” and ecosystem advantage that React has

This is my favorite of the "year in review" blog posts that Cloudflare is putting out: blog.cloudflare.com/radar-2024-y... Great graphs on which websites are gaining in traction and rank. Check this one on the recent rise of Bluesky and how it compares to Twitter and Mastodon:

Yes! networking + in person are critical, but it’s hard to develop a relationship on one-off meetups new age networking is building in public like @dhravya (he’s not on bluesky yet), joining a tech discord like @t3.gg’s, contributing to open source, becoming an active community member, etc

hi bluesky 👋 I never fully introduced myself I’m Thomas, I work on Workers KV and Hyperdrive at Cloudflare I’m based in NYC and attend a bunch of tech meetups so you’ll find me there I’m always hacking on stuff on the side and sharing it here, as you might have noticed from my recent tweets!

I needed to migrate an old Azure Functions project to @cloudflare.social Workers recently... Claude did it for me without error on the first try 🤯 It's really just a matter of time until you push arbitrary code and say "figure out how to host it for me"
