Echo JS 0.11.0

20+ years in and people still need beginner articles on `this`.

I'm not a fan of RxJS for several reasons.  RxJS is pretty big in and of itself for what it does, and I find the Redux patterns easier to reason with the larger your application gets.

Literally do this all the time... easiest way to work through a few issues when your tests aren't working as expected.

Definitely cool for those that know JS but not lower level languages and/or not experienced in sorting algorithms.  However, most languages (including JS) already have sorting algorithms, some work better in most scenarios than even quicksort.

Second, the code formatting is entirely missing, and is nearly impossible to reason with in the article.

LOL... I once worked on a system where database records were inserted with a spacing of (1,3) so that there were intentional gaps... this was then encoded base36, and with a non-standard character order.  The idea was to limit casual users from changing the /path/to/:id ... it worked pretty well in practice.  It was emphatically NOT encryption though, just obfuscation, there was no real risk involved.

The SVG stuff is interesting, but this seems a *LOT* like a re-implementation of hyperapp (and others).

I do something similar for my redux reducers...  I create an update object, then merge it with my original state with a shallow spread.  I also use a deep merge function I wrote for rolling up partial application of configurations for different clients/environments.

Cool, glad to see this module.  WebP would be a cool addition though, and not sure if there's any output optimization, which is a huge issue.

Aside: Since Jimp supports a promises interface, imho the async usage should be the standard for new articles on JS.

Nice little example for this... a corresponding writeup in the readme explaining what's happening would be cool too.

Seems to be as much about spring as it is Vue or anything JS.  Also, Spring is a *REALLY* heavy application base if you're deploying/managing/orchestrating or running in a containerized environment.
