Thanks to Michael & Alex over at the DejaVue podcast for having me on. Check it out, we talk about Vue, unit testing, and my Vue-specific snapshot plugin for #Jest / #Vitest which made Michael say "I don't think I would use snapshots without this serializer." 😲 #Vue.js #vuejs #vue #unittests #webdev
Easter just passed - so, time for a new episode! 🥚

@michaelthiessen.bsky.social and @thealexlichter.com are joined by @thejaredwilcurt.bsky.social to talk about a topic relevant to all of you out there (not kidding) 👀

Testing!
Snapshot testing beyond that - to be more precise

Getting real tired of StackOverflow mods editing my correct answers. I'm gonna start moving my shit off their site over to dev.to (dev.to/thejaredwilc...). I'm open to suggestions for alternative Dev focused blog sites, since dev.to has become completely overrun with AI slop. #devlogs #programming

Just did a new release of Vue-Doxen. You can now document your deprecated props better. It also no longer wraps live slot content in an HTML element. Let's talk about that.

Just did a new release of vue-dev-tools-accessibility. It's a plugin for the official Vue DevTools. Integrates directly with it, and scans the page for accessibility issues. vue-dev-tools-accessibility.github.io #Vuejs #vue #a11y #accessibility #frontend #webdev

Wow, learned a lot about #APCA this past week. My Vue-Dev-Tools #Accessibility plugin now supports color contrast checking with #WCAG 2 AA & AAA, along with APCA Bronze & Silver. Still more to do on the library, but #Vue devs can start trying it out now: vue-dev-tools-accessibility.github.io #a11y

Looking for any #Vue devs that want to try out an early build of my upcoming #Vue-DevTools #Accessibility plugin. It's not done yet, and stuff may break before it's released, but looking for bug reports/feedback.

Someone should make a Web Dev and Sandwich shop and call it "DOMs & Subs".

I'm so tired of ESLint-Plugin-Import having a wild new issue on ever repo I try to upgrade to ESLint 9. I like the new flatconfig, it was the right move, but boy does this upgrade path suck. Can someone fork that plugin, fix it to work with ESLint 9 and with Vue files.
