Reviews of the most interesting devtools and latest beta releases.
Each week we review 2—3 of the most interesting developer tools. Here's what we featured this week.
Not Electron, so no bundled browser - uses the system native webview (macOS WebKit, Windows WebView2, Linux WebKitGTK). Native chrome with system API access e.g. files, sockets, processes. Small app bundles (runtime is 6MB). Everything is HTML inside.
Everything is HTML, so whilst the wrapper feels native, the app isn’t.
Each object (server) gets its own isolated SQLite database. Supports function execution, k/v, queues, cron triggers. Backed by object storage. Compatible with Cloudflare primitives and config. Can be distributed, with state managed in storage.
Still early, with limited fleet management functionality e.g. auto-scaling, etc.
Here's the interesting beta and early access releases we featured this week.
OpenAPI code gen framework.
Tiny package manager for npm.
Software design canvas.
System 1 decision engine.
