Hi everyone!

The new React site is finally out, and it's safe to say that it kicks ass πŸ€— I've put up quite a few related links, and will let you make up your own mind!

There are also some really cool articles. I like the interactive map of React APIs, Remix's approach to breaking changes for v2, or the use of React-Server-Components for translations.

On the React-Native side, the first RC of v0.72 is out. Some long-awaited new features of Metro 0.76 should be available soon, like symlinks support!

    Introducing react.dev

    Introducing react.dev

    The new React website is finally online! A new article comes with this launch. It's a very big project (both tech and content) that required several years of efforts and many collaborators.

    What I like in particular:

    • The focus on hooks and functional components
    • The guides with many diagrams, illustrations and interactive challenges
    • The emphasis of React as a cross-platform solution, not web-only
    • API pages well separated in references/usage, current/deprecated, client/server
    • The overall consistency of the whole experience

    Some changes were also controversial this week, in particular the fact of recommending only a small list of frameworks to start a new React project (Next.js, Remix, Gatsby, Expo) but not recommending many others (Vite, Create-React-App, client-side SPA...).

    Also read:

    Map of React API

    Map of React API

    A spatial and interactive representation of the React APIs, with references to great external articles for each of these APIs. I think it's a great idea and a good opinionated complement to the official documentation.

      Build and Run Synthetic Monitoring That Scales

      Build and Run Synthetic Monitoring That Scales

      You build it, you own it! It’s a simple mantra that has driven software development for years. But what is the best way to monitor complex React applications?

      First: Use Playwright to simulate critical user flows and guarantee that your app works. Second: Be confident that mission-critical APIs are up and running.

      Monitoring as code is a new way to define, test, and deploy entire Playwright-based testing and monitoring setup directly from code. Get started with the Checkly CLI by running npm create @checkly/cli.

      Learn more about the Checkly CLI here.
