Google has officially rolled out Gemini 3.0, and in this episode we take a casual but focused look at what’s actually improved. Matt and Mike break down the model’s major upgrades, run through how Gemini performed in independent audits, and compare those results to competing LLMs. We also discuss what these improvements mean for day-to-day developer workflows, where Gemini still falls short, and whether Google’s latest release finally puts them back in the race for AI dominance. Please note that this is a casual conversation and look through some of the release materials, it is not comprehensive news coverage.

In this episode of the HTML All The Things Podcast, Mike walks through the new web development tech that’s been landing on his radar. From next-gen formatters and bundlers to emerging UI frameworks and terminal-UI toolkits, Mike breaks down what each tool is, why it matters, and where its limitations are today.

In this episode Matt and Mike cover:

• BiomeJS - all-in-one formatter/linter with strong Prettier compatibility

• Ripple - an experimental TypeScript-first UI framework

• TanStack Start - a router-first full-stack framework for React/Solid

• Hono.js - tiny, blazing-fast multi-runtime web framework

• Rolldown - Rust-powered bundler with major Vite build speed gains

• Effect - type-safe effects/concurrency runtime for TypeScript

• OpenTUI - build rich terminal UIs using React/Solid renderers

In this edition of Web News, we explore whether developers in 2025 should build a web app or launch through an app store. Web apps offer flexibility and reach, but platforms like the App Store and Google Play bring built-in visibility, reviews, and trusted security. We break down the advantages of each approach and discuss whether launching on a platform gives your project a major edge.
