NOTE: This is issue #073 of my newsletter, which went live on Monday, July 18h. If you find this information useful and interesting and you want to receive future issues as they are published, ahead of everyone else, I invite you to join the subscriber list at frontendnexus.com.


It has been another quiet week in the web industry. The WebKit team released Safari Technology Preview 149. The Chrome Dev Insider is back with an edition focused on CSS and UI. The software updates section features Ember 4.5, Node v18.6.0, Vite 3.0, and more. And I got a few fresh front-end resources to make your work easier.

Wrapping things up

I am taking a break from this newsletter for the next several weeks. It's vacation season and there is not that much happening at this time. I have my own vacation planned and I want to spend more time with my family. Hopefully, I will also find time to work some more on the website and improve it a bit more.


Ukraine is still suffering from the Russian invasion - if you are looking for ways to help, please check Smashing Magazine's article We All Are Ukraine 🇺🇦 or get in touch with your trusted charity.

Each of these helps me out, and I would appreciate your consideration.

That's all I have for this issue. Have a great and productive week, keep yourselves safe, spend as much time as possible with your loved ones, and I will see you again next time!
