🎭 Two weeks ago, I checked if Claude or ChatGPT could compete with Playwright's native Codegen features. The LLMs did a somewhat decent job if you spend the time to really "craft" a lengthy prompt that includes source code, coding conventions and a custom role. Of course, this didn't turn out to be a great way of using a language model, so I moved on and generated a ton of Playwright tests with GitHub Copilot last week. My conclusion just made it to YouTube! 🫣 👇

@cathiveofficial I ordered some pins quite a while ago, and they've never arrived. I've sent you two contact messages by now, could you please get in touch?

👋 We covered it at the end of the video. You have to decide if this animation is critical or not... 😅 If it's not, you can treat it as enhancement. Chromiums will just work fine (70% market share) and Safaris/Firefox's will follow eventually. If it is, you could check a Polyfill and or go with a JS-first solution in the first place. It's the usual "it depends". Hope this helps. :)

Super exited about this! My friends at Builder and I just kicked off a new series in which we'll look at modern designs / visual effects and rebuild them with modern CSS. 🎉

@sebastienlorber The best way to grow a newsletter is to avoid sending out emails. 😅

@DerVonDenBergen Haha. Greetings fellow Firefox user! 👋

Sitting down to write this week's Web Weekly newsletter. If you're into platform-close frontend news (you know, browser stuff, HTML, CSS, JS...), you might want to check out. 👇

🎭 For the Playwright devs. Recently, I learned about "automatic fixtures" and just published a new video sharing how to use them to implement global `beforeEach` and `afterEach` test hooks.💪 It was quite a ride, including annotations, attachments, and JS error monitoring. 😅

And I'm sitting down to write this week's Web Weekly, if you're into Frontend news going beyond the framework hype you know what to do. 👇

Alright, this time it really looks like the old TechTwitter community could happen over at Bluesky. I had another look two days ago and it feels like the good old days. There's no ads, no nonsense, no drama, no hate and a UI that feels like the one we all loved. Come and join the fun!

This is worth checking out on GitHub. 👍

The new Web Weekly is out. 🥂 This time: ✅ `display: flow-root` ✅ `requestSubmit()` ✅ the disturbing state of HTML whitespace rendering ✅ `git log -S` ✅ text fragment links? ➕ new tools and web platform updates.

For the bloggers: the W3C WebDX Community Group released a web component to display web feature baseline info. Drop `baseline-status` into your HTML and display some juicy browser compat data. 💯

💡 TIL — how to search for commits that added or removed a string. If you apply a search string (a condition, function call, or unique enough method name) to `git log` via `-S`, Git will return all the commits that added or removed the search string. Pretty neat!

@js_craft_hq Cool cool! happy you enjoyed it. :)

JS fun fact: the longest JS timeout is a bit more than 24 days long. You're welcome. 😅
