What makes it fast?

Hi Silas!

Are there any plans to allow running DeepWiki against private non-GitHub repos (e.g. GitLab, Azure DevOps, etc) and keep the output private?

> someone who is good (in competence and/or in behavior) than someone who is nice

What if you're both? This makes me feel self-conscious about being "nice" and toning it down.

One of the biggest problems I run into with Web Components is how to share common CSS styles between them. I understand that goes against the idea that each web component should be encapsulated, but sometimes this is desirable.

Say you have a component library where each component depends on a base set of styles and you don't want to load duplicate styles for each component.

Is there a best practice around this yet?

As a starting point, Tailwind used to use PurgeCSS [0] but I'm not sure what they use now.

If Emmett will run this the same way he ran Twitch, I'm not expecting much action from him.

Interestingly, my YouTube playlists now say "unavailable videos are hidden" so I can't get the link.

There are plenty of use cases so I'm sure it varies.

For example, I often have my browser on the left side and my editor on the right. With only 50% of the width, I sometimes prefer to reclaim the horizontal space and switch back to horizontal tabs.

I was actually looking into building a library today with Webpack and ran into similar problems. But could you help me understand what you meant here?

> but it won't output to a standard format, even with experimental ESM output feature enabled,

Are you saying ESM is not a standard format? Or that the ESM output doesn't actually follow standard ESM? Or maybe you meant something else entirely?

Is there an equivalent article for "what happens when you load a website?"? If it's written anything like this one, it'd be super helpful and I'd love to read it!

I've never understood why public opinion is so polarizing on Tailwind.

Could someone with experience in both camps help me understand the tradeoffs, and offer any guidance on whether Tailwind would (not) be a good fit?

Could you elaborate a bit on what you mean here? Is this saying Turborepo's task runner is flawed in some way?

May I ask why `window.resize` is used over `matchMedia`[0] to detect DPR changes? Is one approach better than the other?

> Though you don't need 4 arcTo in order to make a rounded rect, you can use bezier instead (we do)

I'm pretty new to this - do you have an example of using bezier? And why is it preferred over arcTo?
