Yesterday I headed to the “Web in 2023” / “Meet the Chrome Team” event at the Google office in Berlin. I Just wanted to briefly share some of my highlights of new things, but also things that have already been around, and some people might just not know about.… Read the rest “Web Development in 2023”
In this post I share my experiences with trying to replace webpack with vite for local development of our medium-sized web app. This got longer than I anticipated. See conclusion for the gist of it!
