I ported Chrome DevTools' inspector to Node.js
Just run `await inspect(object)` to inspect any value with an inline interactive CLI
Great for working with large & complex objects in Node without having to spin up a Chrome debugger
Hope to release it soon! 🤞
📦🔍 Excited to introduce pkg-size.dev
A new tool for JavaScript devs to examine npm packages and help determine the installation size and bundle size
Let’s dive into what it can do...
A few weeks ago, @antfu7 and I joined forces on a project called "tsx"
TypeScript Execute (tsx) is a Node.js runtime enhanced with esbuild to run TypeScript & ESM ⚡️
If you're familiar with esno/esmo, tsx is its successor 🙌
Wow... I gained 1k followers today 🤯❤️🙏
To those asking why/how:
👋 I'm a software engineer passionate about improving JavaScript tooling & DX
All my projects are open source 💞
Microsoft didn't actually explain, but I believe they support my TypeScript related projects ↓
Enabling `verbatimModuleSyntax` in your TS project is highly recommended for predictable compilation
If you haven't yet because of all the errors it produces, here's an auto-fixer:

I occasionally get messages for debugging help so I started to refer them to my $2/month sponsorship Q&A
I think $2 for senior eng help is a crazy deal, but most people ghost
Inadvertently, this has been a great filter from people that don't think my time & help is worth $2
tsx passed 2 million DLs/month and is about to reach 5k stars ⭐️
This milestone has proven tsx brings value to people and Im eager to start tackling the queue of issues
But its challenging to invest time and work for free
Any monetization ideas?
