   I know this is a thing of taste, but have you considered a syntax closer to SolidJS's approach? Something that feels a bit more vanilla JavaScript, where signals are just tuples with getter/setter and you use JSX instead of templa

   For open implementations, look at ffmpeg.wasm - it's FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly and supports a wide range of codecs. It's open source and actively maintained. Some truly open/royalty-free codecs you could use - video: VP8

   Without revealing too much, the business logic must remain client side for this use case, and it's a common problem across our industry. I've explained the security reality to the business many times - any JavaScript sent to the c

    Last time I checked, Dart+Flutter on web renders everything to canvas, which means you lose browser fundamentals: native text selection, accessibility features, screen readers, right click context menus, inspectable DOM elements, and SEO. Y

    Not exactly a bug, but I was given a company written video player that receives a video stream, decodes it via the browser WebCodecs API, and renders via WebGL. Users complained that video was laggy and often froze on their iPhones. My task

    Quick question - would something like this cover the basic cancelable promise use case, or am I missing something important about what LazyPromise does differently? function cancelablePromise() { const promise = new Promise(resolve
