- Reposted by Ben McCannIt took a while, lots of debugging and fixes in rolldown, vite-plugin-svelte and sveltekit, but today it happened. For the first time, sveltekit tests in vite-ecosystem-ci for vite-8 beta passed. github.com/vitejs/vite-... Thanks to everyone who helped getting there especially @sapphi.red

- Thankful to the amazing unsung heroes of open source development doing great work like @cyberalien.dev Check out how much smaller `@iconify/tailwind4` has gotten with the latest release!
- Excited to see the Svelte custom rendering work get a sponsor! Additional sponsors are still required to fund the project, which will let Svelte run with Lynx JS
- Thanks to SuppCo for supporting our Svelte Custom Renderers initiative 🙌 When ready, this API will allow devs to use Svelte to build Native Apps, Terminal, or anything they want. If your company wants to help make custom renderers a reality, make sure to reach out! svelte-custom-renderers.com

- I wonder why none of the literally HUNDREDS of individuals with access to publish the Zapier SDK noticed their organization was committing engineering malpractice by giving that many people access to the keys of the kingdom. And that's how you catch SHA1-Hulud... www.npmjs.com/package/@zap...
- With the next release of typescript-eslint, you will be able to setup a new SvelteKit project with every single integration it offers and fast-glob will be nowhere in your dependency tree! Removes over a dozen dependencies like is-number!! github.com/typescript-e...
- In future major releases, typescript-eslint will be able to switch to Node's built-in glob saving even more dependencies. SvelteKit 3 will also drop a number of dependencies. These changes make everyone using SvelteKit safer from the supply chain attacks proliferating in the npm ecosystem!

- The glob library on npm currently has a CVE. It's entirely predictable since it has 26 dependencies. If you're getting a security warning from glob it's a good time to see if you can switch to a lighter dependency such as tinyglobby or Node's built-in glob functionality: nodejs.org/api/fs.html#...
- When reducing dependencies in Svelte projects, I was really surprised how many dependencies the typical glob library has and ended up switching most of the JS ecosystem to tinyglobby once it became available. With one final PR pending, the Svelte ecosystem is nearly free of extra glob dependencies!
