Awesome, I am very excited for the nextjs app folder coming stable, and this is a step forward in that direction.

Haven't touched frontend for a while and slowly getting back into it, your videos have been quite refreshing!

Every YouTuber: "I'm sorry about the external noise"
Me: "I literally hear no noises"

Nice. I wonder if we'll start seeing JSX be used to declarative create things other than DOM elements and components.

[jwueller]

Im really excited for the performance stuff!

2:22 is a game changer, infact I was facing this issue so much in Nextjs 13

So if I get this correctly: undefined isn't the same as not being defined (as, in an object, assigning undefined to a key isn't the same as not having the key at all), but now undefined == void. But, maybe I'm wrong here, I see void as the absence of anything, or in other terms, not defined.
I'm even more confused than before now.

Also forgot to mention Linked Cursors for JSX tags. What a huge win!

I like the bip-bip background music, pretty cool

Nice! Wont be needing those @ts-ignore comments for server components ❤

I never got the program world obsession with 'foo' or whatever using this doesn't make the sample code more clear it makes it actually harder to understand for me....

I actually recently got stung by the CSSStyleDeclaration (Like, a day ago).. I ended up writing my own Proxy around it to make it work properly.. I don't recommend doing that..
I just need to wait for 5.1 now ..

Unrelated getters and setters should also unblock Relay, neat

[mattd]

so I installed TS 5.1 beta but I can't figure out how to type a server component. How can you do it?

[dsl]

"now..." === "meow" 😂

[SpaghettiRealm]

That undefined vs void return type is just a useless breaking change IMHO

[yuriblanc]

fun how react lovers shitted at start on Angular for relying on Typescript and now it's everything

[ByteBound]

Finally 🎉 was getting tired of adding @ts-expect-error
