Here's a nice Lit tip 💡:

If you ever need to coordinate npm scripts you really should check out Wireit

Wireit is like the missing script runner for npm. It lets you describe script dependencies, inputs, & outputs; then runs scripts & deps in order and caches their output.

"We have 22,000 options in the combobox web component, but it seems to be running slow. How do we fix that?" 🤦‍♂️

I am self-deporting here in foggy November looking for blue skies. Trying to forget my X, hoping all the important people I follow eventually follow.
