what annoys you most when using a terminal?
living off the grid
searching frantically for soy milk and wondering what my milk says about me
signed up!
I *loved* the email version of Just Javascript (its timing was perfect, right when I'd started learning to code)
would be super cool if @maggieappleton.com did the illustrations for this react course, too! Couldn't keep up with all the news? We got some selected highlight from last month to recap! 🌀
→ Vite Plus lazyPlugins API
→ @vitest.dev 5 sneak peak
→ Oxlint: RFC for linting Svelte/Vue/Angular templates
→ Module Federation in @vite.dev via plugin
→ @npmx.dev vp option

/model now supports configurable reasoning effort.
Set it from low through max.
Auto for provider default.
How hard your model thinks should be your call. Is AI killing craftsmanship, or forcing its renaissance?
On May 29, our own Eduardo Bouças takes the stage at Craftmatters 2026 to debate exactly that.
The closing roundtable: "Craft is dead. Long live craft."
Hosted by Pixelmatters in Porto 🇵🇹
luma.com/craftmatters... yeah 4.7 is worse across the board, sticking to 4.6 here
And Zed remains open and full of options: bring your own API keys, use Copilot, run local models, or connect any ACP-compatible agent. The choice stays yours!
Your Claude subscription still works in the terminal. And next week we're shipping Terminal Threads to Stable so terminal agents appear in the new Sidebar alongside your native agent threads.
TLDR: agent/SDK usage now draws from a separate credit, billed at API rates. For heavy users, this is a major cost increase.
Anthropic's Claude billing changes hit June 15. We wrote up what it means for Zed users and what your options are:
zed.dev/blog/anthrop... Egress costs are an annoying reality of AWS and GCP.
But there are ways to minimize the pain while also getting more out of your database.
New post on how to send less data, save money, and make your apps faster:
planetscale.com/blog/databas... The diff view is, yes! The new history tab in the git panel that we clicked on initially is new and will land in stable next Zednesday!
doodling for a blog post on @val.town as "the Salt Fat Acid Heat of vibe coding"
(as in: don't turn your brain off, learn to cook/code!) How on earth did I not know about html
It's just the sort of pointless detail I love
Kicking myself for not fulling reading @patrickweaver.net's "A Blog Post With Every HTML Element" a few years ago Eduardo Bouças on how we built Netlify Database as an AI-native primitive: zero-config provisioning, a dedicated branch for every deploy preview, and a CLI that works equally well whether a person or an agent is driving.
www.netlify.com/blog/how-we-... Simple pkg example from the demo: npmx.dev/package/@vp-... Vite+ now supports custom org templates 🎉
Built-in templates are great defaults!
But for more complex setups, you can now set up your own templates and reuse them easily.
Check out the whole setup guide to prepare your own templates.
