    Years ago, I applied for a job. I asked for $90k (what my previous employer said I wasn’t worth). He countered with $100k: β€œyou’re worth more than you think.” Find an employer who will invest in and be fair to you.

    This is the goal for @terse/webpack that covers 95% of my projects + escape hatch for going back to plain #webpack.

    My best tip to developers is to COMPLETE. THE. PIPELINE. Building a website? Deploy day 1. Need a database? Wire it up, even if you don’t have data. Want Auth? Configure it EARY. Your proof-of-concept should have all the moving parts in place FIRST. Go deep later!

    😍 My new favorite thing: 1️⃣ Write a Story in @storybookjs 2️⃣ Automate interactions with `.play()` 3️⃣ Save network calls to .HAR file 4️⃣ Story.parameters = { har: require('path/to.har') } πŸŽ‰ Fast, CI-friendly E2E tests that work offlineπŸ“΅!

    Replying to @AngelaRiggs_
    Keep 1-on-1s, don't cancel or move them because of a "fire". Delegate cool projects to keep people engaged. Code less. Build bridges with other departments. Give individuals a chance to lead (vs funnelling through you). Encourage career growth, irrespective of team/company.

    Unpopular opinion: docs should live with code.
