  • Ok, firstly let's get some of the buzz words out of the way: Alfred - "Alfred is an award-winning app for macOS which boosts your efficiency with hotkeys, keywords, text expansion and more" TypeScript - "TypeScript is a strongly typed programming language that builds on JavaScript, giving you better tooling at any scale." Deno - "A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript" As a MacOS user I actually use Alfred every day rather than the default MacOS Spotlight. In fact so embedded it is into my daily muscle memory, that if it disappeared tomorrow I be stuck hopelessly randomly hitting key combos with an expectation that something would happen. I use it to replace repetitive tasks (search and opening files, browsing websites, playing music, finding contact phone numbers) with "workflows", to boost my productivity. Some of these "workflows" are built in to the app, but some are downloaded and installed having been created by others. As a developer, one of these "downloaded workflows" was something I used almost every day. It allowed me to navigate around Github.com (open a repo, create a new PR or track an issue) and being able to do it with minimal keystrokes - which became fewer over time due to learning my habits - was invaluable. The problem was the "workflow" I was using was written in PHP. I don't write PHP so if I wanted to extend it or fix bugs it required learning a new language I'm not interested in.

  • Firstly looking through the alerts a couple now say: "No security update is needed as kind-of is no longer vulnerable" "No security update is needed as ansi-regex is no longer vulnerable" These a updates that may be useful, the main one being css-loader as it's so old. superagent need bumping. App is using ^2.2.0 and latest is 8.0.0 flux could be bumped from ^3.1.1 to 4.0.3 css-loader needs a major bump from 1.0.0 to 6.7.1 that needs some webpack config changes too.
