In this episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott discuss recent web development news, including Amazon's Kiro VS Code fork, Node.js's TypeScript support without a flag, React Router's support for React server components, and Cognition's acquisition of Windsurf. They also cover CopyParty, a versatile open-source file server, Vite overtaking Webpack in NPM installs, and Rolldown Vite for faster build speeds. Additionally, they touch on Claude Code's updated pricing due to heavy usage, Svelte's asynchronous capabilities and RPC, and ByteDance's Trey VS Code fork with its autonomous agent, Trace Solo. Finally, they explore Perplexity's Comet browser and its agentic capabilities, before ending with sick picks: a swivel pressure washer gun and natural soaps/deodorants.
