Implementing a shopping cart with React 19
Let's build a shopping cart with the new hooks from React 19. We will start with a simple implementation and slowly iterate our way through different React 19 features and hooks using Next.js.

Custom component-based media players
Media players are often the last thing people try to customize in their applications, either because it's intimidating, the native player seems to be fine as it is, or the video/audio platform doesn't allow much customization. Some of us think that's sad and shouldn't be the case. Video and audio should be fun, and fun to work with.
Media Chrome and Player.style are a few open source projects trying to change that by providing composable player UI components that handle the complex media logic, and a set of professional-grade themes to start from. These themes and components work across media players (Youtube, HTML5 video), and across frameworks (React, Svelte, vanilla HTML). That's possible thanks to web components (with React wrappers), standardized media APIs, and lot of keyboard mashing. I hope you get inspired to upgrade your own player.
