@brianleroux Ah. Jest.
One of my favorite features is that if you for some reason have a syntax error in your test, Jest will just eat the error and pass the test despite how much it fails.
Makes me trust the tests 200%.

@raganwald@social.bau-ha.us Sure, but from a branding perspective most want a unified branding and user experiences across all surfaces.
Then branding are in direct conflict with adopting the deep integration of the platform.
Most I encounter advocate for a unified branding and UX across all surfaces but still argue "native feeling" for choosing what technology to implement apps with.
So; I still don't get it.
"Native feeling" is a term I encounter quite often when discussing application technology.
Can someone explain what it means to me because I don't know and no one using it have been able to explain it to me.
Though; this term seem to poses super powers when it comes to decision making on how to implement applications.
If you are a technical lead; you should read this one: The Ultimate Design Maturity Guide for Tech Leaders.
"In today’s tech-driven market, superior products alone don’t suffice; you must be design-driven in order to outperform your peers"
The core of this is spot on.
Though; Add Tauri as an alternative to Electron and one cover the gated mobile app segment as well.

@snugug I've used PouchDB and CouchDB for larger projects. PouchDB uses indexDB under the hood. But, its an abstraction on top and in many cases I don't need that. For simpler and smaller projects I have not found something out of the box. I always end up with some kind of custom. Would love something out of the box though.

@jaffathecake How would you do that with an avif in a service worker? I can think of a way to do it with other image formats, but not avif. @gundersen

@jaffathecake Right. My thought was to use OffScreenCanvas and related APIs to get what one need from blob data in the ServiceWorker. But, that excludes AVIF due to those APIs. @gundersen
