Introducing rollup-plugin-rust by @drsensor [development]

This is a very solid piece of technology and @drsensor’s approach to compiling Rust to WASM is fairly unique in the space. It’s definitely exciting for Rust developers, as it will potentially give them a really easy way of creating WASM through NPM, which was impossible until now.

^{Image source}

This is the forth tutorial in @alexendre-maxim’s jQuery series on Show, Hide, Toggle, FadeIn, FadeOut and FadeToggle. As you can see from @rosatravel’s comments, @alexendre-maxim consistently improves his work, so we fully expect to see Rosa’s suggestions in her comment implemented in the next tutorial. There is still room for improvement but this is a solid tutorial.

[Steemhunt] SMT and Steemhunts relation by @jayplayco [blog]

@jayplayco did it again: He published another great post about SteemHunt. This time, he explains the roadmap of the project for the upcoming hard-fork including launch of SMTs. While great news for followers of SteemHunt, the post is also informative for crypto enthusiast who don’t know much about SMTs. Without a doubt, it deserves to be picked as the best of the week.
