📄 GitHub Actions Could Be So Much Better

GitHub Actions provides a fantastic and useful service, but the developer experience leaves a lot to be desired, particularly when debugging them. If you’ve been frustrated with figuring out Action and setting up your own workflows, you’ll find a lot to nod along to here.

➡️ A little JavaScript AI-side..

AI, LLMs and machine learning have caught the imagination of many developers recently, whether through training and deploying models, calling out to third party APIs (like those OpenAI offers), or using tools like GitHub Copilot to write code. It's common, however, for a lot of AI/LLM experimentation to take place in Python, rather than JavaScript..

Nonetheless, there's an increasing number of projects in the JavaScript AI/ML space worth keeping an eye on, as well as an upcoming AI developer event being organized by two folks from the JavaScript space:

- Transformers.js: State-of-the-Art Machine Learning for the Web

- Microsoft TypeChat: An Approach for Type-Safe LLM Responses

- WebLLM: Run LLM Models in the Browser with WebGPU

- TensorFlow.js: Machine Learning for JavaScript Developers

📄 The Saga of Google's Closure Compiler

Dan looks back at Google’s Closure Compiler, a JavaScript transpiler Google built in 2004 and used most heavily in the pre-TypeScript era to reduce the size of JavaScript files, check types, and otherwise handle common pitfalls. A neat bit of JavaScript history.

📄 One Thing Nobody Explained To You About TypeScript

The author makes a strong case for creating a separate tsconfig.json for each environment your code runs in: “Today, I write about one thing about configuring TypeScript that took me years to realize. I’m sure you’re making the same mistake as I did.”

📄 Tesseract.js 5.0: JavaScript OCR for 100+ Languages

A port of the C++-based Tesseract library used to extract text from images. v5.0 is a big deal as there are huge file size reductions resulting in a 50% decrease in runtime size, a similar reduction in memory use, and iOS 17 compatiblity.
