Hi, friends. The last 6 years have been a blast, but I just don't like being on The Internet anymore. I'm leaving DevRel, and I wrote a little bit about why. Look after yourselves, and each other. Love, Salma

Goodbye, forever, probably.

I’m leaving developer relations and developer education. Rather than disappear completely unannounced, I wanted to tell you why.

Say hello to 🐣 fledgling - a new tool to create new npm packages and setup/sync trusted publishing (OIDC) settings. Works great for one offs, but even better in a monorepo! just `npx fledgling`

⏱️ Day 2 👉 We discussed date formatting without JS: 🤔 Where to implement the solution? ShadowDOM using the `<time>` element or CSS with the content property or both? 🤔 What is the scope? should we render absolute or relative time? 🤔 Accessibility? text selection? ✍️ Notes: hackmd.io/IJgF2r1DSuyZ...

When it comes to fonts, I always trust @florian-lefebvre.dev. This looks amazing.

Florian Lefebvre@florian-lefebvre.dev · 2mo ago

Today I'm launching Leturgerð! Pick a font family, its properties and download it. Hook it up in your project and you're good to go. CLI + docs, works for any web project. Check it out: leturgero.web-runes.dev

Watch out! Chrome has a huge bug with <input type="number"> which causes values to change unexpectedly. It's fixed in Chrome 150, but that won't land until the end of June.

Today I’m launching Vite Deploy! A minimal deployment primitive for @vite.dev apps: deploy anywhere, whether your app is static, server-rendered, or both. It’s designed to integrate easily with other tools: Hono, @tanstack.com Start... Check it out: vite-deploy.web-runes.dev

Fresh Starlight release, fresh batch of plugin updates. All my Starlight plugins are now 0.39-ready and already using the latest improvements.

Astro@astro.build · 3mo ago

Starlight 0.39 just dropped! New ways to use autogenerated sidebar links, plus improvements to styling and multilingual docs. Read all about it 👇

A feature-packed release for the Starlight OpenAPI plugin: - operation snippets for cURL, JavaScript, Rust, and more - autogenerated request body examples - autogenerated response examples

Building on recent improvements, the Starlight Links Validator now includes more features useful for large documentation sites like Cloudflare Docs: - choose if link validation errors fail the build - JSON error reports for external tooling - GitHub Actions step output github.com/HiDeoo/starl...

"Open source is not just about code, it's about the people that make the code work", @zeu.dev sharing the ATProto parts of npmx at #Atmosphereconf

Used a large refactor to make validation reports in the Starlight Links Validator plugin more user-friendly and actionable: - source locations for issues - invalid links point to the source - error messages link to docs with explanations and suggested fixes

Look what landed in DevTools in Chrome Canary! A Request # column, allowing you to: - More easily return to the page load sort order - More quickly identify when important resources are loaded late (LCP resource as request number 59? No thank you!) Thanks to Helmut Januschka for implementing!!

CSS `light-dark()` is about to support images! www.bram.us/2026/03/19/m... Shipping in Firefox 150. Starting tomorrow, available behind a flag in Chromium 148.

OK, not the *main* story of the day... but, the v6 major upgrade guide was a BIG part of Team Docs life for months. A lot of us worked on it. I hope it works for you when you upgrade! (And if it doesn't... well, that's just an opportunity to contribute yourself!) docs.astro.build/en/guides/up...
