📄 npmgraph: A Way to Visualize Dependency Graphs

Give this Web-based tool one or more package names (or a package.json of your own) and you can see a visualization of the dependency graphs for those packages, including where they intersect. Packages can be colored by various criteria (such as number of maintainers) and you can download a SVG of the resulting graphs to paste into your reports and presentations if you like scaring people that way. There’s a lot more to this tool than meets the eye so have a play.

💿 Macintosh.js: A Virtual Macintosh Running via Electron

An impressive virtual machine emulating a 1991 Macintosh Quadra 900 with System 8, all running in Electron. We linked to this several years ago but it’s had some updates since then and runs faster than before. As well as a few games, such as Oregon Trail, there are a variety of apps pre-installed, including a trial of Adobe Photoshop 3 which starts up faster than my real Photoshop now.. (Download necessary since it's an Electron app and all..)

“I’ve written before about how React is the new default frontend framework, and how I don’t think most people using React on a regular basis realize quite how much it’s fallen behind.” High level thoughts about the React ‘bubble’ and some reasons to look beyond it, including a round up of some of the alternative options.
