Soy un apasionado del desarrollo web y todo el ecosistema #javascript 
Creo que el open source nos hace más humanos. Y por ese motivo decidí entrar en esto del fediverso.
Busco aprender y poder divulgar acerca de tecnologías y mundo desarrollo
AI, cursing
Ah, yes. The joys of asking an #AI a simple #NodeJS question, but forgetting I'd changed the temperature settings for some work I was doing earlier.
Me: "How do I set up something like python's venv for NodeJS?"
deepseek R1 (after about 30 seconds of increasingly unhinged reasoning): "You can't do that fuckwit."
No further context. Well, okay then! I can't wait until budget cuts replace nurses and doctors with AI; I'm sure that's gonna go just fine.
New Kitten release
• Socket routes now have precendence in the router.
This stops wildcard page routes from capturing the default socket routes that Kitten creates to enable the Streaming HTML workflow.
e.g., Previously, the following route:
/videos/index_[slug].page.js
Could not connect to its default socket (/videos/default.socket) because default.socket would be captured by the [slug] parameter.
Now, it will work as intended as the /videos/default.socket (a socket route) has precendence over index_[slug].page.js (a page route).
Learn more about Kitten’s Streaming HTML workflow here:
https://kitten.small-web.org/tutorials/streaming-html/
Enjoy!
Socket and @sealsecurity_io [bird.makeup] collaborated on resolving a critical 3-year-old npm overrides bug, and the fix just shipped in version 11.2.0. →

I am once again faced with the bleak irony of people who install onto their computer some 5 or 10 apps via FlatPak or Docker, including VSCode, each installed with their own entire copies of Node.js and Electron.js (differing only in their minor revision number), while also complaining about Emacs being “bloated” because it ships with a miniature web browser and fully-featured e-mail client.
New Kitten release
• Fixes edge case where the sign in page, if left open for longer than the length of a session, would throw an error on sign-in attempt (because the challenge for the public-key authentication Kitten apps use would have expired alongside).
Big shoutout to Node.js for adding TypeScript 
But how is it different than Deno's "first class" TypeScript support?
Here's an overview of what you can (and can't) do with TypeScript in Node and Deno.
Do you want to advertise "my Node.js product now uses AI!!" but don't know how to add AI?
Use the package "is-even-ai"
New Kitten release
• Added instructions to Kitten’s Settings app for how to set up a webhook at Codeberg¹ so that pushing to your main branch automatically updates your deployed server.
(Would you like me to add instructions for GitHub also? Hmm, let me think a moment… No.)
You can also find the relevant information in the Kitten reference:
https://kitten.small-web.org/reference/#webhook
Enjoy!

New Kitten release
• Fixes redirection from sign-in page when person is already authenticated.
To learn more about how Kitten automatically implements authentication for your Small Web sites and apps using public-key cryptography (so even your own server doesn’t know your secret)¹, please see the Authentication tutorial:
https://kitten.small-web.org/tutorials/authentication/
Enjoy!
¹ The security (and privacy) of Domain/Kitten are based on a 32-byte cryptographically random secret string that only the person who owns/controls a domain knows.
This is basically a Base256-encoded ed25519 secret key where the Base256 alphabet is a set of curated emoji surrogate pairs without any special modifiers chosen mainly from the animals, plants, and food groups with some exceptions (to avoid common phobias or triggers, etc.) that we call KittenMoji.
…
When setting up a Small Web app via Domain, this key is generated in the person’s browser, on their own computer, and is never communicated to either the Domain instance or the Kitten app being installed. Instead the ed25519 public key is sent to both and signed token authentication is used when the server needs to verify the owner’s identity (e.g., before allowing access to the administration area).
The expected/encouraged behaviour is for the person to store this secret in their password manager of choice.

New Kitten release
• Fixes issue with routes where dynamic routes with file names that had more than two extensions were not recognised as the correct type of route. e.g., A route called index.xml.get.js would previously have been treated as a static route instead of a dynamic GET route.
For more details, see the Valid File Types section of the Kitten reference¹ and the Dynamic Pages tutorial².

Did you know that Kitten has a built-in HTML validator that checks your markup for validity and accessibility issues, etc.?
You’re informed of validation errors in not just terminal but also in your browser’s web developer panel. And, if you select the “Show validation issues on page” link from a validation error in the web developer panel, Kitten will show the validation errors in place on your page.
This helps me catch issues with my markup all the time and I hope it helps you too.
Enjoy!
Are you still using npm transpile services like esm.sh and unpkg.com?
Here's why we recommend importing npm packages natively via npm specifiers

Calling all front-end devs!
I need to hire a javascript developer for a one-off job helping me with a custom integration between a hosted node.js widget and a self-hosted Wordpress site.
The job is limited in scope and should take hours or at most days.
Timescale: relatively urgent, ideally I'd like the work done as soon as possible.
Happy to pay your usual contracting rate.
Spread the word!
