React Compiler Stable Release

#react
#compiler

React Compiler is now stable! Automatic memoization without useMemo/useCallback:

// Before: Manual optimization
const value = useMemo(() => expensive(a, b), [a, b]);

// After: Just write normal code
const value = expensive(a, b);
// Compiler handles memoization automatically!

AWS Lambda Response Streaming

#aws
#lambda

Stream responses from Lambda for better TTFB:

export const handler = awslambda.streamifyResponse(
  async (event, responseStream) => {
    responseStream.write("Starting...");
    // Process data
    responseStream.write("Done!");
    responseStream.end();
  }
);

Perfect for AI-generated content and large payloads.

GraphQL Persisted Queries

#graphql
#performance

Replace query strings with hashes for smaller requests:

// Instead of sending full query
// Send hash: "abc123"

// Server looks up query from hash
const query = persistedQueries.get("abc123");

Reduces payload size and prevents arbitrary queries in production.

AI Healthcare HIPAA Considerations

#ai
#healthcare

When using AI APIs with healthcare data:

  • Use Azure OpenAI or AWS Bedrock (BAA available)
  • Never send PHI to consumer AI APIs
  • Implement data anonymization before processing
  • Log all AI interactions for audit trails

Always get legal review before deploying AI in healthcare.

Unity WebGPU Support

#game-dev
#webgpu

Unity 6 now supports WebGPU for browser games:

  • 2-3x better performance than WebGL
  • Compute shaders in browser
  • Better mobile GPU utilization

Enable in Player Settings → WebGL → Graphics API → WebGPU

Next.js Server Actions with useOptimistic

#nextjs
#react

Combine Server Actions with optimistic updates:

const [optimisticLikes, addOptimisticLike] = useOptimistic(
  likes,
  (state, newLike) => [...state, newLike]
);

async function handleLike() {
  addOptimisticLike({ id: Date.now() });
  await likeAction(); // Server Action
}

UI updates instantly while server processes in background.

Supabase Edge Functions with Deno

#supabase
#edge

Edge Functions run on Deno Deploy globally:

// supabase/functions/hello/index.ts
Deno.serve(async (req) => {
  const { name } = await req.json();
  return new Response(JSON.stringify({ message: `Hello ${name}!` }));
});

Deploy: supabase functions deploy hello

OpenAI Vision for Game Asset Analysis

#openai
#game-dev

Use GPT-4 Vision to analyze game screenshots for QA:

const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  messages: [{
    role: "user",
    content: [
      { type: "text", text: "Identify UI bugs in this screenshot" },
      { type: "image_url", image_url: { url: screenshotUrl } }
    ]
  }]
});

Great for automated visual regression testing.

AWS Bedrock for Enterprise AI

#aws
#ai

Access Claude, Llama, and other models through AWS:

import { BedrockRuntimeClient, InvokeModelCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-bedrock-runtime";

const client = new BedrockRuntimeClient({ region: "us-east-1" });
const response = await client.send(new InvokeModelCommand({
  modelId: "anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
  body: JSON.stringify({ prompt: "Hello" })
}));

Data stays in your AWS account - great for compliance.

GraphQL Subscriptions with Supabase

#graphql
#supabase

Supabase's pg_graphql now supports subscriptions:

subscription {
  messagesCollection(filter: { room_id: { eq: "123" } }) {
    edges {
      node {
        id
        content
      }
    }
  }
}

Real-time GraphQL without additional infrastructure!

Node.js Test Runner Snapshots

#nodejs
#testing

Built-in snapshot testing in Node.js 22+:

import { test } from 'node:test';
import assert from 'node:assert';

test('snapshot test', (t) => {
  t.assert.snapshot({ foo: 'bar' });
});

Run with node --test --experimental-test-snapshots

Healthcare AI - FHIR Integration

#healthcare
#ai

Parse FHIR resources with AI for clinical insights:

const prompt = `Analyze this FHIR Patient resource and summarize:
- Active conditions
- Current medications
- Recent lab results

${JSON.stringify(fhirPatient)}`;

Always validate AI outputs against clinical guidelines.

Next.js 15 Caching Changes

#nextjs
#caching

Fetch requests are no longer cached by default in Next.js 15:

// Now you must explicitly opt-in to caching
fetch(url, { cache: 'force-cache' });

// Or at route level
export const dynamic = 'force-static';

More predictable behavior but check existing code!

Unreal Engine Pixel Streaming

#game-dev
#streaming

Stream UE5 games to browsers without downloads:

  • Game runs on cloud GPU
  • Video streams to browser via WebRTC
  • Input sent back to server

Great for demos and cloud gaming. Works with Next.js frontend!

AWS S3 Express One Zone

#aws
#storage

10x faster S3 for latency-sensitive workloads:

// Create directory bucket
aws s3api create-bucket \
  --bucket my-bucket--use1-az4--x-s3 \
  --create-bucket-configuration '{"Bucket":{"Type":"Directory"}}'

Single-digit millisecond latency. Perfect for AI/ML data.

#supabase
#ai

Store and query embeddings directly in Postgres:

-- Enable vector extension
create extension vector;

-- Create table with embedding column
create table documents (
  id serial primary key,
  content text,
  embedding vector(1536)
);

-- Similarity search
select * from documents
order by embedding <=> '[0.1, 0.2, ...]'
limit 5;

No separate vector DB needed!

OpenAI Assistants API v2

#openai
#ai

Build AI agents with built-in tools:

const assistant = await openai.beta.assistants.create({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  tools: [
    { type: "code_interpreter" },
    { type: "file_search" }
  ],
  tool_resources: {
    file_search: { vector_store_ids: ["vs_123"] }
  }
});

File search now uses vector stores for better RAG.
