Last week, I built a callout component for my blog. If you’re wondering what a callout component is, it’s a visually distinct box for emphasizing important information like warnings, tips, notes, or errors.

I’m working on an article to show you how to build a callout component for your Astro blog or documentation site too. I will make it available on freeCodeCamp. So stay tuned.

I’m also working on the following:

• an article detailing 10 practical examples of using DayJS in your JavaScript applications. It will be available on the OpenReplay blog.

• an article on the JavaScript intersection observer API. It’ll be available on my blog.

• two articles on how to format currencies in PHP and JavaScript. Both will be available on my blog.

Tech Tool of the Week

Day JS is a minimalistic date formatter for your JavaScript applications. DayJS is minimalistic, at the same time ridiculously easy to use.

If you’re still using the default JavaScript date object to display dates in a huge application, it’s time to drop it for Day JS.
