Last night, Facebook fully released StyleX—a Framework-agnostic approach for modular and inline styles. If you have ever viewed source on Facebook, Instagram, or Threads, you’ll notice the output is similar to Tailwind, but the authoring is different.

High-performance TypeScript ORM that works w/ most databases.
🍬 Poor Charlie’s Almanack
Awesome inspiration for a typography-based site.

- Guillermo Rauch on how Next.js Tried it
