I often use object literals in place of if/else or switch statements. JS is nice about that.

Do you compile VS Code from source to make sure it's not leaking your private data to anywhere?

I'd use xdebug for PHP. Or Node inspector for JS. Clojure has one of the best tools... Cider for SpaceMacs evaluates your code as you type.

Javascript never had classes because it was inspired by a functional language named Scheme. Not sure why Ecma Script added classes other than to appease Node. All the trends are moving towards functional programming and away from inheritance.

Thanks for reminding me to update to Node 16. Also... The start.dev inside package.json was super important.

It sounds like an interesting idea... But I would use IAM roles on AWS. I'm still afraid my keys might be accidentally released. Then wake up to a $20k AWS bill from some hijack crypto miner. It's also why I use BitBucket for private code.

The unused CSS code feature is neat. I need an easy way to clean up my Sass.

Optional chaining is essentially the equivalent of null object pattern. It's one reason chaining is forbidden in OOP... Law of Demeter.

Super useful. I like the calc () for css. I think you meant to write console.table in the code example?
