- If you find Engramma (design tokens app) interesting, give it a like on @npmx.dev npmx.dev/package/engr...
- Hey! I'm looking for my next thing. Could be contract or full-time. I build design systems, web apps, and design tools. If you know someone who needs a frontend/fullstack dev, send them my way 🙏 trysound.io/hire-me
- Love how with a little sprinkle of CSS you can transition elements between pages. All it takes is @view-transition { navigation: auto } and view-transition-name defined on the element.
- Reposted by BogdanI loved working full-time on @vite.dev hired by StackBlitz. High praise to companies hiring OSS devs! But as I did when starting @vitest.dev with @antfu.me, for this new community adventure, as project steward of @npmx.dev together with @danielroe.dev, I'll be going independent. Here we go again ❤️
- 🎉 Open Props 🤝 Engramma 🎉 Excited to share that Engramma now ships with Open Props as a built-in preset for design tokens. Open Props gives you a solid, battle-tested foundation of CSS custom properties that you can easily alias to your own semantic token set.
- Rebuilt my website using Astro. The setup was incredibly easy and fast. Every question I had was answered in the docs. Took just a few hours. 🔗 trysound.io
- Reposted by BogdanThe @e18e.dev project, which systematically speeds up the Node.js ecosystem, has published its 2025 results. Invisible heroes who make life better for all of us. They need our support. e18e.dev/blog/the-yea...

- 🎉 Open Props now supports the stable Design Tokens specification! import designTokens from "open-props/resolver" I added a dedicated "resolver" format to avoid conflicts with existing token setups. Later, I'll explore adding a semantic layer on top of this foundation.

- The next version of color-input will be smaller. Similar to zod, colorjs.io offers functional API which is more convenient if you want to reduce the app size. github.com/argyleink/cs...
- Playing with a custom Figma plugin. It seemed pretty straightforward, until I tried to use an external library. If you even dare to have import() in a TSDoc, Figma punishes you with a cryptic error (they scan for imports with a regex). Still, I managed to get it running.
- Reposted by BogdanHey, we're Bombshell 👋 We're the maintainers behind projects like Astro, e18e, StudioCMS, and pkg.pr.new. We're building focused, composable open source libraries for CLIs and TUIs. Excited to show you what we've been up to. bomb.sh/blog/introdu...
- There are few ideas to integrate Engramma into various tools. Now you can use Engramma on your website. The new engramma package packs the whole app in a Custom Element that you can drop into a dialog and use to edit design tokens extracted from CSS variables directly on the page.
- Shout-out to @chriscoyier.net for inspiring engramma custom element with his slideVars library: codepen.github.io/slideVars/
- Reposted by BogdanI’ve been thinking about open source work that sits between “side project” and “venture-backed startup.” Watching the atproto space has sharpened my thinking around shared, communal infrastructure. These are some thoughts on why that middle path eroded and what it might take to rebuild it.
- Reposted by Bogdanexciting news! we're starting a new monthly live streamed show: e18e & friends. hosted by the great @thealexlichter.com! monthly we will catch up with friends from the community, with a focus on performance and what cool things they've been building lately first guest TBA soon, streaming 10 Feb 🎉
