Back in May 1995, a 33 year old Brendan Eich built the first prototype of JavaScript in just ten days, originally codenamed Mocha (and then LiveScript). On December 4, 1995, Netscape and Sun Microsystems officially announced 'JavaScript' in a press release as "an easy-to-use object scripting language designed for creating live online applications that link together objects and resources on both clients and servers."
Over thirty years, JavaScript has cemented its place at the heart of the Web platform, and more broadly in desktop apps, operating systems (e.g. Windows' use of React Native), mobile apps, and even on microcontrollers.

β οΈ π΅ Denial of Service and Source Code Exposure in React Server Components
Security researchers have found and disclosed two additional vulnerabilities in React Server Components while attempting to exploit the patches in last weekβs critical vulnerability.
If you already updated for the Critical Security Vulnerability last week, you will need to update again.
If you updated to 19.0.2, 19.1.3, and 19.2.2, these are incomplete and you will need to update again.

Because making new frameworks like Next.js is relatively easy nowadays, someone with enough social influence can literally destroy Vercel's business by popularising some other framework, which, by the way, would have nearly identical problems anyway, because this was mostly the React problem itself.

In many situations, you donβt need a full-on framework to build useful tools; just HTML, JavaScript and CSS in a single file will do the job fine. Simonβs become a bit of an expert by rolling out many such tools using LLMs, and shares his process and practices here. More please!
