It’s December 2, 2022, and the JavaScript ecosystem is speeding up, one library at a time. Preact’s developer is discovering low hanging, yet hidden, fruit to help accelerate the JS ecosystem, while ECMA TC39 has advanced proposals such as Iterator Helpers, Explicit Resource Management and Set Methods to Stage 3. AppSignal has recently released version 3.0, introducing OpenTelemetry support and 6 new integrations. Meanwhile, Electron.js has released v22.0, with support for Windows 10 and the official ‘batteries-included’ build tool for packaging and distributing Electron apps, Electron Forge 6. Advent of Code has begun and there’s an online Rust for JavaScript Developers workshop taking place on December 14. Additionally, TypeScript 5.0 is due in late January 2023, and the Storybook project is looking to make support for Vite, Next.js, Svelte, Remix and Nuxt easier to roll out in 2023.
There have been several releases this week, such as Tesseract.js 4.0, Superagent 8.0.4, Prisma 4.7, Lerna 6.1, Node.js
