Conform sets novalidate & validation attributes?

The Call Kent Podcast ·

2023/08/24

Hey, Kent! I'm trying out @conform-to/react, specifically the useForm hook. I noticed that it sets novalidate: true on the form even if JavaScript is disabled. I'm wondering: Why does it add validation attributes to the inputs then if they're not being used for validation anyway, regardless of whether JavaScript is enabled or not?

The Call Kent Podcast ·

2023/08/23

I have been in current team for couple years, and feel my skills are kind of stuck because I have spent too much time fighting with the team refusing to get better.

Remix Full-Stack Components (vs Server Components)

The Call Kent Podcast ·

2023/07/13

With React Server Components getting more traction, this idea of each component being able to fetch its own data seems to getting more popular rather than data-fetching being purely route-based. In Remix-land, you’ve had a talk about “full-stack components” with a similar concept where a “resource route” can have no default exports but still export a loader and a React component in order to have a reusable component with its own data fetching. It seems there might be differences between

How To Deal with Hiring Developers?

The Call Kent Podcast ·
