Next.js had a security vulnerability scare last week due to an internal header in its middleware that allowed for skipping middleware (like auth validation) before reaching routes. The Next.js team responded quickly and patched the security holes, but this serves as a reminder to stay vigilant, keep dependencies updated, and implement multiple layers of security.Michael Jackson, co-founder of Remix and React Router, is calling it quits for Remix support React Server Components. Lots of React-based frameworks built prior to RSCs have been struggling to support the new paradigm shift - and lots of devs have bemoaned the fact because of the added complexity it introduces, and MJ is over it. This isn't the first time framework authors have made bold claims to not support new breaking changes, so we'll have to wait and see if he sticks to it.Rsdoctor, a build analyzer tool by ByteDance, has hit v1.0.

Steve Galili, lead software engineer at MyWheels, discusses the transition from the React Native Community CLI to Expo for their car-sharing platform. He highlights the benefits of Expo, such as easier development and maintenance, and the challenges of convincing the team and management to make the switch. Steve also shares insights into the technology stack of the MyWheels app, including a back office admin tool, a B2B portal, and the core app. He mentions the future plan to migrate to Expo router and the importance of prioritizing core functionality during the migration process. Steve also shares the benefits of using Expo, such as faster builds and easier onboarding for web developers. He then highlights the importance of testing in React Native and introduces the React Native Testing repository he created. Steve expresses his excitement for React Server Components in React Native and the potential improvements they can bring to the MyWheels app.Learn React Native - https://galaxies.devSteve GaliliSteve X: https://x.com/vanGalileaSteve website: https://linktr.ee/stevegaliliSteve GitHub: https://github.com/vanGalilea/LinksMyWheels' Journey from RNC CLI to Expo: https://expo.dev/blog/from-rnc-cli-to-expoMyWheels: https://mywheels.nl/React Native Testing: https://github.com/vanGalilea/react-native-testingMock Service Worker: https://mswjs.io/TakeawaysThe transition from React Native Community CLI to Expo can bring benefits such as easier development and maintenance.Convincing the team and management to make the switch to Expo can be a challenge, but highlighting the issues with the current setup and the potential improvements can help.During the migration process, it's important to prioritize core functionality and make decisions based on the impact on users and other apps.

Kicking off the discussion is the release of Vue 3.5. Although it's not a major release, Vue 3.5 packs some great new features and optimizations like: reactivity system improvements (up to 56% less memory usage for apps than before), reactive prop destructuring stabilization (it's simpler to declare props with default values), and SSR improvements like lazy hydration for async components.RedwoodJS is also out with a new version, and 8.0 packs a wallop. It makes RedwoodJS the third framework to support React Server Components behind Next.js and Waku.The shadcn CLI has gotten an update as well where it can spin up a brand new Next.js app with shadcn and Tailwind configured and ready to go. Additionally, shadcn has integrated more tightly with Vercel's v0 AI code generator, and now every shadcn component is editable on v0, so users can customize the components in natural language and paste it into their apps afterwards. Pretty amazing!The TC39 Committee responsible for evaluating what new features get added to the JavaScript language has added a new intermediate step for proposals: step 2.7. By the time new proposals reach step 3, they must already have full test suites to support their implementation, and if, for any reason, they must go back to step 2 to rethink things, a lot of that work can be for naught.News:Paige - Vue 3.5 is outJack - RedwoodJS 8.0 and shadcn CLI updatesTJ - JavaScript Standard Gets an Extra StageList of ECMAScript proposals on GitHubBonus News:Laravel raises $57 million series ASSR benchmark wars update (author Matteo is the Fastify lead maintainer)What Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - House of the Dragon season 2Jack - Raspberry Pi TJ - Linkin Park is back!Thanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

Web development survey results season is upon us, so this week's episode covers two of the newly released survey results: the State of React survey 2023 and Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2024.Just over 13,000 developers filled out the State of React survey, and the results were quite interesting. React devs are fans of component libraries like MUI (Material UI) and shadc/n, state management libraries like Zustand, and data fetching libraries like TanStack Query. They gripe about well-known Hook footguns like useEffect(), useMemo(), and useCallback(). And features like React Server Components and the use() Hook are still largely untested by the community, although many devs have heard of them.The more all encompassing development survey from Stack Overflow received 65,000 responses this year, providing some very cool insights about the larger developer world beyond the bounds of React.It's fascinating to watch the trends starting to catch on or die down in the web development space year over year, and we highly encourage everyone to take a look at the survey results. There will probably be some surprise in store.News:State of React Survey 2023Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2024What Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - NeilMed Sinus Rinse KitJack - Logitech Spotlight Presentation RemoteTJ - Electric fly swatterThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.
