    Your weekly celebration of JavaScript and the web. Current panelists: Jerod Santo, Kevin Ball (KBall), Nick Nisi, Chris Hiller, Amal Hussein & Amy Dutton.

    Past panelists: Suz Hinton, Feross Aboukhadijeh, Amelia Wattenberger, Divya Sasidharan, Alex Sexton, Rachel White, Emma Bostian, Ali Spittel, Mikeal Rogers & Jessica Sachs.

    We talk about the web platform (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, Brave, etc), front-end frameworks (ReactJS, SolidJS, Svelte, VueJS, AngularJS, etc), JavaScript and TypeScript runtimes (Node, Deno, Bun), web animation, SVG, TailwindCSS, robotics, IoT, and much more. If JavaScript and/or the web touch your life, this show’s for you.

    Some people search for JSParty and can’t find the show, so now the string JSParty is in our description too.

    Leveling up JavaScript with Deno 2 Sep 26, 2024

    Jerod is joined by Ryan Dahl to discuss his second take on leveling up JavaScript developers all around the world. Jerod asks Ryan why not try to fix or fork Node instead of starting fresh, how Deno (the open source project) can avoid the all too common rug pull (not cool) scenario, what’s new in Deno 2 & their pragmatic decision to support npm, they talk JSR, they talk Deno KV & SQLite, they even talk about Ryan’s open letter to Oracle in an attempt to free the unused “JavaScript” trademark from the giant’s clutches.

    Off to see the Wiz Apr 11, 2024

    How does Google build Search? What about YouTube and Google Drive? We rely on Chrome’s Lighthouse scores when optimizing our websites, but what does Google prioritize? Recently the Angular and Wiz teams announced their intention to responsibly merge their internal frontend framework, Wiz, with Angular to bring some of Wiz’s best ideas to Angular. We’re chatting with Minko from Angular and Jatin from the Wiz team to learn about how Wiz has been used in Google historically, what it’s good at, and why it’s worth bringing some of its ideas to Angular.

    Tune in for this deeply important & timely discussion as we also unpack recent events with Apple and their DMA (un)compliance, and how the OWA helped successfully organize thousands of web developers from around the world to hold ground for a free & open web.

    htmx: a new old way to build the web Jan 12, 2024

    Carson Gross (creator of htmx) & Alex Russell (Mr. Web Platform 3000) join Amal for an EPIC discussion on web architectures, the evolution of rendering patterns & the advantages of hypermedia and htmx. We dive deep on why modern web app best practices are falling short & explore how htmx gives devs an HTML-first approach to use tech that’s over 20 years old.

    Tune in to learn a new way to do something old, so you can simplify your code & use JavaScript when/where it’s uniquely able to shine ✨

    Reflecting on Bun's big launch Oct 05, 2023

    Fresh off Bun’s big 1.0 launch, Jarred Sumner goes one-on-one with Jerod to discuss the all-in-one JavaScript runtime that’s captured the interest of many. We get into it all: what problem he’s solving, how it’s so fast, why no Windows support, answering the critics, the (not real) beef between Bun and Node, how the VC-backed startup will sustain & more.

    Reports of Node's death are greatly exaggerated Sep 28, 2023

    Amal, KBall & Chris convene a “semi-emergency” pod to discuss the recent (deserved) hype over Bun and what it all means for Node’s community, maintainers & users.

    They’re joined by Node Technical Steering Committee members Matteo Collina & James Snell who are here to dispel Bun antagonism rumors, discuss the pros & cons of each runtime, explain how Node continues to thrive & even announce a VERY big upcoming feature!

Of course, the stance each panelist is taking is assigned ahead of time. Is that how they really feel? Tune in and find out!

    JavaScript will kill you in the Apocalypse Dec 03, 2021

    Salma Alam-Naylor joins us this week to share her thesis that JavaScript is best in moderation, and is a liability when creating performant, resilient, and accessible web applications. Salma says we’re drunk on JavaScript, and it’s time we learn how to leverage this powerful web primitive to enhance our web experiences, alongside HTML and CSS, instead of purely relying on JavaScript to completely run the show.

    Evolving alongside JS Jun 19, 2020

    We take a listener request this week and discuss how we evolve alongside (or opt out of) the ever changing JavaScript syntax. Arrow functions and variable declarations take center stage, but a wide range of new(ish) JS syntax and features are discussed.

    Then Feross shares his new app, Nick talks fiction books, and Jerod switches coding fonts.

    This is JS Party! Mar 03, 2020

    We are a party-themed podcast, so FUN is at the heart of every episode. One way we keep things fun is by mixing it up and trying new things.

    We play games like JS Jeopardy… (clip from episode #112)

    debate hot topics like should websites work without JS… (clip from episode #87)

    discuss and analyze the news… (clip from episode #94)

    share wisdom we’ve collected over the years… (clip from episode #106)

    interview amazing devs like John Resig and Amelia Wattenberger… and a whole lot more.

    Oh, and did I mention we record the show live? You can be part of the hijinx each and every Thursday at changelog.com/live.

    This is JS Party! Please listen to a recent episode that piques your interest and subscribe today. We’d love to have you with us.

    All the stale things Feb 21, 2020

    Divya leads a deep discussion with Jerod, KBall, and Nick on what’s stagnating in browsers. What has remained the same in browser tech over the last 20 years that remains a pain point in working with browsers? For example - Focus in browsers hasn’t changed much in 20 years. Why is that and how do we go about making all the stale things in browser tech better?

    GraphQL is a querying language with the aim of increasing the productivity of frontend and backend developers. It can make working with React easier, be used as an API for third-party clients, and allow for feature-rich applications to request precisely the data they need. Like any part of your stack, GraphQL isn’t a panacea. The language is still being developed, and has some limitations.

    • graphql.org is where you can learn all about GraphQL
    • Awesome GraphQL provides a list of GraphQL tools
    • learn.hasura.io offers GraphQL tutorials

    Lesser known things browsers can do in 2020 Jan 24, 2020

    Did you know you can make a device vibrate via a webpage? Neither did we until we popped open Luigi De Rosa’s super cool repo that collects many of the lesser known things browsers can do in 2020.

    On this episode we hang out on his list and discuss which APIs were surprises to us, which we think are the most useful, which we wish would die in a fire (sorta), and what you might get if you mash up a few of these APIs.

    You're probably using streams Nov 22, 2019

    This week we chat with Matteo Collina, Technical Director at NearForm and member of the Node.js Technical Steering Committee, about his upcoming Node+JS Interactive talk on Node Streams. We talk about their creation before any standards and how they are one of the bedrock APIs used throughout the Node ecosystem. We also talk about WHATWG streams and some of their key differences, and how streams have gotten easier to work with thanks to the addition of async iterators and generators to the language.

    A mission to set the course of the world wide web in its early days. 10 days to get it done. The result? An indispensable language that changed everything.

    JavaScript was the underdog that won against all odds. Clive Thompson recounts the browser wars and how much the fallout influenced the future of the internet. Charles Severance explains how JavaScript went from a last-minute moonshot to the default web development language. Michael Clayton confesses he, like many others, underestimated JavaScript. And Klint Finley describes a gloomy internet without it.

    Nest 'dem loops Nov 16, 2018

    NESTED LOOPS is a JavaScript band that combines music and video with web tech to perform live at JSConf. In this episode, Jerod and Suz are joined by Jan Monschke and Kahlil Lechelt, which comprise 2/3 of the group.

    After sampling one of their tracks, we hear the story of how they got the band together, the journey of building a tech stack for their first live performance, and how that stack was then rewritten to be “good” for their second performance. Suz is at awe with the technologies at play. Jerod wonders if there’s room in the world for musicians directly targeting JavaScript devs. A good time is had by all.
