After Jazz released version 0.15, I cleaned up a few things in the documentation. I removed outdated references to the old version, added a clearer warning about a common setup mistake that was tripping people up (including me), and made sure all the installation guides mention the required Node.js version.
Jazz is a framework for building real-time collaborative apps. I cleaned up how environment files (which store secret settings like API keys) are handled across all the example projects. Previously some examples accidentally included real configuration files in the public repository. I made sure only template files are shared, with clear instructions for developers to create their own private copies.
Jazz's documentation site had a bug where the search bar was causing horizontal scrolling on the page, especially on small screens. I fixed it by making the search container take the full width of its parent, which stops it from overflowing.
Jazz is a framework for building real-time collaborative apps that sync data between users. I updated the setup instructions across all the example projects to reflect a new way of connecting to a local sync server, so developers following along wouldn't get tripped up by outdated documentation.
I removed a leftover debugging statement from the Jazz codebase. Developers sometimes add temporary log messages while building features and forget to clean them up -- this was one of those.
Jazz is a framework for building collaborative apps, and it supports several UI frameworks including Svelte. The docs page for Svelte's "provider" setup (how you connect your Svelte app to Jazz) was incomplete. I filled in the missing documentation so Svelte developers can properly set up Jazz in their apps.
The Jazz docs had a code example for Svelte passkey authentication where a template literal was missing a $ sign. Without it, the variable inside the string wouldn't actually get replaced with its value. I added the missing $ so the code example works correctly.
Someone built a minimal example app to demonstrate a bug with Jazz and Svelte, but the example itself had issues. I fixed the reactivity (making the UI update properly when data changes) by using Svelte's built-in $derived feature, and also added graceful handling for missing images instead of crashing. I also added the Jazz Inspector debugging tool to help with further troubleshooting.
I rebuilt the UI of my personal drinks tracking app using shadcn, a modern component library that provides clean, accessible interface elements. I also switched the project to use Bun as the package manager and tidied up some styling issues along the way.
The Svelte Society website maintains a directory of community-built components for the Svelte JavaScript framework. I added my own image component library to their registry so other Svelte developers could discover and use it.
I added a new metric to my personal drinks tracking app that shows how many days you went over the recommended alcohol intake limits. I also fixed some type-related bugs along the way.
I tidied up the code in my personal drinks tracking app -- a small tool I built to keep tabs on my alcohol consumption. This included some general refactoring and a bug fix.
I set up the initial project structure for Tastine, a personal app built with Svelte. This was the foundational first commit to get the project off the ground.
idle-task is a JavaScript library for running tasks during browser idle time so your app stays responsive. I fixed a typo in the README where "priority" was misspelled as "prioriy." Ironically, my commit message also contained a typo -- Muphry's law in action.
I added a new blog post to my personal SvelteKit blog.
I updated the README documentation for my personal blog, which is built with SvelteKit.
I updated the README for a small project about double prime vowel symbols used in linguistics. The explanation of what the double prime symbol is and how it's used wasn't clear enough, so I rewrote it to be easier to understand.
Chicken Dinner Timer is a web app I built for timing how long to cook chicken. I added a README file to the repo so visitors can quickly understand what the project is and how to use it.
Svelte Tiny Linked Charts is a small library for rendering sparkline charts in Svelte apps. Previously, the charts were display-only -- you could look at them but not interact. I added a click handler so developers can run custom code when a user clicks on a data point in the chart, like showing more details about that value.
I updated my family photo management app to use EXIF data (the metadata embedded in photos by cameras, like the date and time a photo was taken) for generating file names. This gives much more accurate file naming than guessing or using arbitrary names, making it easier to organise and find photos.
