Microsoft dropped the last version of JavaScript-powered TypeScript this week with TS 6.0. TypeScript 6 bridges the gap between the TS of yesteryear and the soon to come Go-powered TS compiler of TypeScript 7 that users can fix now so they can smoothly upgrade later.
Next.js 16.2 debuted this week with the usual performance improvements expected in a minor version upgrade, plus AI improvements to make AI-assisted development smoother and easier.
In response to Cloudflare’s Vinext fork a few weeks back, Vercel’s released a stable of adapter APIs to make deploying Next.js apps to hosting platforms besides Vercel easier. While this is a step in the right direction, it’s still not exactly “easy” to get all the bells and whistles of a Next app running on other platforms.
