The future of Lodash

blog.ulisesgascon.com @ulisesgascon

“Just a few minutes ago we announced that a new chapter in Lodash’s history begins. A chapter full of hope, excitement, and hard work — leaving behind years of solitary maintenance to embrace a collaborative and sustainable model, at a time when the JavaScript ecosystem needs stability and coordination more than ever.”

Announcing Oxlint JavaScript plugin support

voidzero.dev @trickroll @voidzero-dev

“TL;DR: Oxlint now supports plugins written in JavaScript. Developers can customize and extend Oxlint using JavaScript, but at a speed approaching Rust, due to ‘raw transfer’ between Rust and JS, and other breakthroughs. Many ESLint plugins can run without any modification.”

Deno’s other open source projects

“Deno’s codebase - and most of what we build around it - is open source under the permissive MIT license. Over the years, we’ve published dozens of supporting libraries and tools that solve common problems we’ve run into while building Deno. Here are a few we think others may find useful.”

Toolchains: user experience, tools to include, foundational knowledge, etc.

Vite: The Documentary

“Featuring many prominent developers in the JavaScript ecosystem, this documentary dives into the innovation, competition, and collaboration that turned Vite from an underdog prototype into the new standard for modern web tooling.”

Shipping Node.js packages in 2025

www.youtube.com @joyeecheung

“Since the stabilization of ESM in Node.js in 2020, shipping packages that work with both the old CommonJS system and the new ESM system has been a challenge. Recently, Node.js introduced several features to help developers deal with the woes that come from the interoperability issues of the two module systems. In this talk we will look into them and the new patterns that can help making the lives of package maintainers easier.”
