New blog post: Compositing & Blending! 🥳 I spent the last few months reading all about blend modes so you don't have to: You'll learn what compositing and blending are, and what is actually going on under the hood when you apply blend modes in CSS 🎨 nik.digital/posts/compos...

Finally had some time to improve the types for my private, custom design system. Don't ask me what I was doing before 😅 Kinda fun to learn about the constraints of TypeScript and how to drastically improve certain types that are heavily re-used.

Is it only me or does the TypeScript language server in VSCode/Cursor constantly run out of memory and stop working? I have to restart my IDE at least 4 times a day due to that. The bigger the project (monorepo), the more frequent I have to do it.

The recent commotion around Tylenol and autism reminded me how many neurotypicals are so uninformed about neurodivergence they think neurodivergent conditions (autism, ADHD, OCD etc) are some sort of plague that you can catch if you’re not careful enough.

It's been a while since I've been excited about coding, but working on a new product with @webcloud.se always gets me excited! Currently, I'm using Zod to auto-generate a ton of UI for our new template editor based on variables provided by the users. Going to share our progress soon!

Yesterday, I sent out the first newsletter issue of 2025! 🚀 In this edition, I share: - A simple system to stay on top of chores - My monthly favourite song, book, recipe and video - My key takeaways from "Hell Yeah or No" by Derek Sivers 👉 Read it here: buttondown.com/robinweser/a...

Hell Yeah or No

Kicked off the year with exciting launches, new coaching, reflections from our book club, a free tool to create your personalised Wheel of Life, and tips for tackling chores efficiently!

One of my favourite exercises to gain clarity on where I'm today and what I'm aiming for is the Wheel of Life. It's intuitive, visual and works pretty much for anyone. If you want to give it a try, I've broken down how to use it in my latest article: robinweser.com/blog/the-whe...

One thing that really changed how I make decisions was the realisation that every "yes" is inevitably a "no" to something else. Think of your time as a path with multiple forks in the road. Every decision to move forward on one path means leaving another one behind.

The past few weeks, I’ve had the privilege of coaching some amazing people. In the process, I’ve noticed many of us share similar thoughts and assumptions that hold us back—small things we don’t even notice. Starting today, I’ll share insights to help you break free and focus on what matters.

I just published my 2024 in review post! Last year I started sharing my yearly review publicly and got a lot of nice feedback, questions and even had some inspiring discussion. robinweser.com/blog/2024-in...

New Year, New Me

A new calendar doesn't change you. Waiting for January 1st doesn't make it easier. January 1st doesn't give you more discipline. It doesn't...

Just added a little Bluesky-powered comment section to my website! Kudos to @emilyliu.me and @coryzue.com for the idea and example code ♡

I‘ve written my toughest, longest and most personal post ever. It‘s a story about autism and fitting in - also kind of an outing too. robinweser.com/blog/living-...

I just published a new article called "Priority is Binary": robinweser.com/blog/priorit... I wanted to write about that for a long time, as I've seen so many people struggle with it in our modern lives. I also share my approach to bringing back clarity and focus with a simple principle.

Maybe it's just the typical excitement you get when starting something new, but I couldn't be more happy leaving toxic Twitter behind 🙈 Kinda feels like 10 years ago when I first created my Twitter account to share my first open source project.

I quit drinking a little over a year ago when I turned 30. If you're curious on my experience quitting and the time since, I wrote a birthday blog post last month reflecting on that very decision: robinweser.com/blog/quittin...

Impressed with this informative primer on TypeScript for React. I knew bits and pieces already, and am far past the point where I feel like these things are troubling me, but this article is still much more complete than my own practices, and lays it out in an easy to understand and elegant way.

Do we still need CSS vendor prefixes in 2024? Wondering what vendor prefixes even are? I wrote a short blog post about it: weser.io/blog/vendor-...
