Scripting News: Friday, December 5, 2025

I've come to see WordPress as an API with a widely deployed and stable implementation behind it, where the user is in control and developers can build apps without having to get into the storage-selling business. #
When they say AI is just autocomplete on steroids, that's like saying a human is just a product of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur on steroids. It may be true, but it doesn't say anything useful. It's also like saying that a computer is just a collection of on and off switches. #
Funny thing about yesterday's Supreme Court decision, if Texas goes ahead with their gerrymandering plan, it probably will backfire on them, cause them to lose a few seats instead of gain them. The news reports generally leave that out, probably figuring the sports fans who can understand the gambling on football and baseball couldn't understand that gerrymandering is a bet that you know which voters will turn out and who they'll vote for a year in the future. In fact NPR reports it as a victory for Repubs. Right now it looks very much like it is not. #

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 }" > ...

Learn to write insanely good composables in Vue

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 ...
