Mozilla has released Readability as a standalone package so you can avoid spinning up a browser entirely:

Re:Finally, a guide for Node.js and TypeScript and ESM that works

tsx v4 was released a couple weeks ago which addressed many incompatibility issues. Hope you have a chance to give it another shot :)

Maintainer of tsx here.
tsx should be able to handle Playwright as of v4+, and hopefully the test coverage you're referring to.
Before, it was compiling ESM syntax to CJS as an effort to ease the ecosystem's CJS -> ESM migration, and hiccuping whenever it encountered `eval()`. Now it includes smarter checks to determine if a file needs to be compiled at all and skips processing most dependencies.
Hope it works well for you!
Re:Slidev – Presentation Slides for Developers

Slidev is amazing! It's an alternative to Google Slides/Keynote/Powerpoint, allowing you to code your slides as a website so you have more granular control.
The slides are written in markdown so it's very intuitive and easily maintainable:
```
# Slidev
Hello World
---
# Page 2
Directly use code blocks for highlighting
```ts console.log('Hello, World!') ```
---
# Page 3
...
```
It's also built on top of Vite and Windi CSS so it's blazing fast!
Checkout their beautiful website: https://sli.dev
For the first time, I can't wait to do a slideshow presentation!

More importantly, he's super kind and friendly, and strives to raise other engineers. He's definitely on to big things!

esbuild has flipped the JS community on its head. Not only as an impressive JS bundler, but through all the next gen tooling esbuild is powering.
For example, you can now speed up your Webpack build with esbuild by replacing babel-loader/ts-loader/Terser: https://github.com/privatenumber/esbuild-loader
(It also blows my mind that Evan is the CTO is Figma. How is he so productive!?)

Re:Show HN: ustaxes.org – open-source tax filing webapp

Filing taxes is a solved problem in many countries so it's very disappointing it's still so difficult to do in the US. I'm glad to see open source engineers taking matters into their own hands to disrupt this corrupt industry.
If milestones and a growth path can be clearly planned and communicated, I think many people would happily chip in to help fund a project like this.
Something like this page would be nice: https://k9mail.app/2021/02/14/K-9-Mail-is-looking-for-fundin...
