More progress compiling Prettier to Wasm then running it in dprint. 32 threads then 1 thread.

Current progress compiling Prettier to Wasm.

It's actually not faster when strictly looking at how long it takes to format text, but dprint traverses files really fast and the Wasm scales better on multiple threads (this chart is JS warmed up, which the Wasm doesn't need to do).

It's very hard to innovate on module resolution in JS because the TS user experience would be bad. TypeScript needs something like content mappers, but for module resolution—you specify an npm package in a tsconfig and then TS sends it the raw specifier and referrer info to resolve.

github.comInvestigation: running prettier as a Wasm plugin (too slow for now) · Issue #107 · dprint/dprint-plugin-prettierThis records an investigation into replacing the process plugin (V8 via deno_core) with a Wasm plugin, so nobody has to repeat it.

Current progress compiling Prettier to Wasm.

I've been looking into getting prettier compiled as Wasm the past week with equivalent performance to v8... initially had some poor investigation into it (github.com/dprint/dprin...), but I resurrected an idea I had in the past and it's looking more promising.

You can use bun's formatter in dprint now with `dprint add bun` (dprint.dev - code formatter for all your code formatters) It's also available to try in the playground here: dprint.dev/playground/#... Of if you want to use it in JavaScript: www.npmjs.com/package/@dpr...

After many years, finally got the Roslyn (C#/VB) formatting plugin for dprint (dprint.dev) compiled to Wasm so it runs sandboxed instead of launching an executable. Amazing how far C# has come.

It’s sad to see Deno being discontinued. However, I think it’s not all terrible. Deno pushed server side JS forward for everyone - Node copied many the standout features Deno had at launch in 2020, bringing them to the masses. Fetch, web sockets, web crypto, direct TypeScript execution, and more. 🫡

bit of an update, it's been a few months now since I parted ways with Deno, and I'm starting to actively look for jobs again! I'm pretty good with big systems, compilers, and embedded. especially if rust or elixir are involved :)

ts-ast-viewer.com now supports TypeScript 7 along with nightly builds of the typescript-go repository. It's not selected by default, but available in the dropdown.

Reporting the same security issue to pnpm vs bun: pnpm acknowledged it quickly, shipped a fix, backported it, and published an advisory. bun never acknowledged, silently fixed this and another issue I reported, has not published advisories. One takes security more seriously.

beautiful new docs site at dax.land for @dsherret.bsky.social's dax, one of my very favorite tools. I write nearly all my scripts in TypeScript because of it

The latest version of dax (dax.land) can show a scrolling view of the last N lines when executing a command. This is especially useful when running multiple commands in parallel.

Or alternatively, use the new `$.all` function.

jsr.io@david/shell - JSR@david/shell on JSR: Cross-platform shell for Deno and Node.js inspired by zx.

Also, the cross-platform shell has been extracted to a dedicated JSR package jsr.io/@david/shell

The latest version of dax (dax.land) can show a scrolling view of the last N lines when executing a command. This is especially useful when running multiple commands in parallel.

It works well with progress bars, selection, and other features that dax provides.

Released gagen 0.5, which simplifies the output to match dependabot.

David Sherret@dsherret.dev

I've found maintaining GitHub Actions workflow files is much easier when it's generated from Typescript. The latest realization is that the output yaml file can act like a lockfile. So I maintain `actions/checkout@v6`, but the generated output gets locked to a hash.

23 Apr

Also added an `npx gagen --pull-versions` command to sync the version constraints in the TypeScript files with the .yml files after dependabot updates them. More details, including limitations, here: github.com/dsherret/gag...

I've published a library here that also has tooling around this github.com/dsherret/gagen

plugins.dprint.devPlugins - dprintLatest plugin versions for dprint.

26 Mar

Due to terrible GitHub availability, dprint formatting plugins on plugins.dprint.dev are now served directly instead of redirecting to GH assets. Additionally, the plugins are now cached indefinitely by the server, which eliminates the risk of a repo disappearing.

26 Mar

For the official process plugins, I was unfortunately using absolute URLs in the plugin manifests, so you'll need to run `dprint config update` to get better reliability for those.

26 Mar

I'm also working on support for plugins distributed on npm and support for using node resolution to resolve plugins. This should help users who have IT/compliance constraints.

Released jsonc-parser 0.32, which allows deserializing via serde to a concrete type. It's also much faster.

Last Monday was my last day at Deno. It was a privilege to work with such talented colleagues. The standard library has been my passion for years. I've reviewed all PRs since 2023 and learned a lot from them. Proud to see it often mentioned as one of the best parts of Deno.

My last day at Deno was this week. I really enjoyed maintaining the language server and working with the CLI team, and I'm sure they will keep building great things. Looking for new work in the space of native-backed JS/TS tooling, or something new!

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. It's rare you get to work with so many highly skilled peers in one place, but I'll be now cheering from the sidelines. Not sure yet what comes yet. I'm officially looking for a job now!

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. I'm going to transition from two days a week to full time on a business I cofounded in the auto glass industry. My plan is to increase my contributions to my personal open source projects and keep contributing features/fixes to Deno that I need or want.

It's been an incredible privilege to have been paid to spend these last five years working with extremely talented colleagues designing, implementing, and refactoring a large portion of Deno.

There's so many cool things under Deno's hood that we haven't talked about so I'll also take some time to blog or post about them soon.

dprint's incremental formatter is incredibly fast and happens without needing an opt-in. You can use both oxc and biome via dprint for faster performance.
