It’s that spooky season again 🎃
The @github.com contributions graph gets its Halloween look via `data-holiday="halloween"`. There’s even a “winter” variant waiting in the CSS for when things get frosty ❄️

I recently published an early preview of a new Visual Studio Code extension providing IntelliSense for Starlight Markdown and MDX content links: internal links completions, fragments completions, go to definition/follow link, and hover preview.

💡Needed a diff between branches, but wanted to skip some folders or files. Turns out this syntax is pretty useful:

```
git diff v1-dev..master > v1-dev..master.diff -- . ':(exclude)dir_or_file'
```

Didn't know about that, but if a page includes <meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@user@server">, then when it’s shared on Mastodon, an extra footer banner appears linking to that Fediverse user.

🚀 Excited to share that my talk “Design Systems: Inner & Open Source Strategies” has been accepted at Open Source Experience this December! 🇫🇷 #OSXP2025 🎉
It’ll be in French, and I’ve got 20 minutes, so it’s going to be intense!
👉 Any specific aspects you’d like me to cover?

📜 Interested in publishing changelogs with your Starlight docs? Just released a new plugin to do just that:

- Support generating changelogs from many sources like Changesets, GitHub Releases, and more to come
- Paginated list of all versions with individual version pages

Looks like eslint-plugin-prettier and eslint-config-prettier might have been compromised 😬 github.com/prettier/esl...
four new versions published with no code changes to repo · Issue #339 · prettier/eslint-config-prettier
The diff looks a little odd: https://npmdiff.dev/eslint-config-prettier/10.1.5/10.1.7 Is this expected? https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-config-prettier?activeTab=versions

Maybe overkill, but I installed Raycast for a quick shortcut to insert the Unicode arrow I often use in editors and terminal.
Created a new snippet with the shortcut ";arrow" that renders "→".
I'm curious about Raycast best practices. What shortcut formats do you use for this kind of thing? 🤔

pnpm v10.12 is a huge release!

We’ve added many new features to the version catalogs system.

We also shipped a new experimental option that makes installation almost instant on most dev machines.

If you maintain some npm projects, www.npmjs.com/package/npm-... can be useful now and then.

It updates package.json to the latest versions, ignoring semver ranges.

Just run `ncu -u`, then `npm install`.

Find newer versions of dependencies than what your package.json allows. Latest version: 18.0.1, last published: a month ago. Start using npm-check-updates in your project by running `npm i npm-check-u...

It’s here! Bootstrap 5.3.6 is now live — and the docs are now powered by @astro.build 🎉
No flashy changes (as expected — it's meant to feel seamless 😆), but I’m excited to see it live and running smoothly!

The Bootstrap docs migration to Astro is nearly ready to merge. Time for some good old-fashioned manual visual non-regression testing 😅

I'm deep in a tunnel, wrapping up a Bootstrap documentation migration to Astro. But stay tuned—I'm also working on an article about Design Systems looking to embrace Open Source while finding the right balance with InnerSource.
