Scripting News: Saturday, October 4, 2025

Saturday, October 4, 2025
I test drove three different EVs today at an event at SUNY Ulster today. VW ID.Buzz, Rivian R1T, Kia EV9. I was surprised the one I liked best was the VW. It handled well, the others were sloppy, drive like the big cars they are. The Rivian had the best computer system, looked even nicer at first look than the Tesla. The Kia EV9 had a standard Kia computer system, far behind that of Rivian or Tesla. VW's computer was halfway between, it appeared they thought overall about the controls, but I was so impressed by the ride, and size, and the whole concept of it, and I always liked vans. I'm seriously thinking about swapping my Tesla for the VW. There are other disadvantages, I'm going to start reading up on it, until today I never gave it any thought, didn't think it would be a car for me. But I realllly liked it. #

Learn to write insanely good composables in Vue

图片
If you're using Vue 3, you're probably using composables. But other than using VueUse where you can, how do you get the most out of them? Over the past few years I've been slowly putting together a list of patterns and best practices for how to write composables in the best way. ​ I've spent hours reading the source code of VueUse (one of the best — but most time-consuming — ways to learn it). ​ I've read articles, listened to talks, and written lots and lots of my own code. I ended up with 15 different patterns, and each one will help you to write better composables. ​ I've condensed and put all of these composables together into a course — Composable Design Patterns. ​ Get Composable Design Patterns now. ​ Because this is the launch, it's on sale for 35% off until Thursday. For each of the 15 patterns in this course, you'll get: A concise overview that tells you when and how to use it, along with variations and edge cases ...

The magic of scoped slots in Vue ✨ (3/4)

Hey! In yesterday's email I shared what I think is the key feature to making Vue components highly reusable: Scoped slots. But scoped slots are hard to grasp, and even more difficult to master. So today, we're going to make sure we understand them on a deep, intuitive level. Then, I'm going to introduce you to the magic ✨ of scoped slots. The trick is to think of them as functions. Slots are just functions We're going to recreate the functionality of slots, but we'll use a regular Javascript function that only returns HTML. This is the code we'll replicate: <!-- Parent --> < template >   < div  class = "modal-container" >     < div  class = "modal" >       Content in the Parent       < Child  class = "mb-4"  v-slot = "{ text }" > ...
