New ❤️ Button + Playwright 1.33 & 1.34 Release Video
This week I will be brief in the US we have Memorial Day as a holiday and I've been doing a lot of learning apart from Playwright. This week I created my first NodeJS server with 3 endpoints and a hosted MongoDB backend. I updated the Playwright template with some HTML, Javascript, and CSS which interact with the node server I spun up. All hosted on https://fly.io/ within a docker container.
This was all in support in rolling out my homemade like button, which is visible on every post page within the site.
My new goal is to have 100,000 unique hearts over the next few years. Though through the front end you are able to give multiple hearts, I have a way to filter down to only unique hearts through the api.
Now onto some Playwright Goodness!
This week Debbie(@debs_obrien) and Andrey(@aslushnikov) shared the Playwright v1.33+v1.34 update with us from the same room!
This week a lot of the Playwright team was onsite for MS Build, where the whole team joined together to answer everyones questions regarding the Playwright Project, feature requests, and it's future. There are ton of nuggets within the two sessions below.
