Not many go into such details as Dr. Axel Rashmayer, but when he explores something, then it is till every line and letter.

I didn’t expect that, but HTMX is upfront, followed by React, Svelte, Vue and Angular. That’s something! From most popular frameworks, Excalidraw is helpful for quick sketching. Shadcn/ui is very loved, and so is Magic UI. In state management, everything looks very similar to other years’ Zustand, Jotai, and XState. Interesting, but Bootstrap is back in 2024, sitting proudly between TailwindCSS, DaisyUI, and Pico.css.

Interactive 3D apps
“Six months in the making, Threlte 8 redefines performance, flexibility, and developer experience for 3D web graphics using Svelte. It’s our biggest leap yet, powered by Svelte 5, exciting updates from Three.js, and tons of community input.”
Quite impressive scenes you can create in a browser, for example, a spaceship:

Not sure how useful for any, but I know how easy it is to slip into those side projects 🙂

It is a fantastic project to play with colours and immediately see changes in a browser.
The tool to make CSS easing functions simple

Some of my favourites. extend() , regions and reading flow (this is solid accessibility issue), Mixins , trim text from the middle (yes, please!), random() , stateQueries

Looks pretty good tool to quickly see all alt tags, titles and links are correctly marked.

Thought-provoking post. I disagree about the browser death, though. Yes, AI gives focused answers to questions, but I like to go to sources as it lets me “connect” to the author on the subject. That means, there must be a way to browse, there will be web.
