Scripting News: Friday, January 23, 2026

Friday, January 23, 2026
Just watched Darkest Hour, a biopic of Winston Churchill, as he became prime minister and had to decide whether to surrender or fight Mr Hitler as they called him. I had seen it of course when it came out, but it's especially appropriate to our times. I'm glad the NATO's are resisting the US. We have to work together to keep democracy alive, not just in our own countries, but around the world. If ever there was a time when working together mattered more than it does today, I sure can't think of it. And that all of this revolves around the technology we played a part in creating, that makes it all feel so much more real.#

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.

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 ...
