Hey 👋

The PAPAFAM Newsletter dives into the complexities of creating an NPM package in 2024, emphasizing the importance of following best practices and utilizing useful tools.

It also introduces Rspack 1.0, a Rust-powered JavaScript bundler that stands out by being compatible with the webpack API.

An article about implementing a React-like framework from scratch offers insights into the inner workings of React, while another piece discusses upcoming improvements to JavaScript's handling of dates and times, an area historically known for its challenges.

The newsletter also covers an in-depth explanation of JavaScript generators and highlights the release candidate for TypeScript 5.6.

Additionally, it mentions a 5-day AI SaaS App Challenge and features the success story of Dyllan Fabio Higgins landing a job at Betway. The recommended book this time is "Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life" which explores the concept of finding one's purpose for a fulfilling and extended life.
