This episode was incredibly good! It’s super interesting that HTML imports would actually be possible (and also that they might be called <rupert> – and include lazy loading)! Thank you guys! 👏

Weekly Roundup #015
Oh hai there! Happy Friday to you all, hope you're good. Aardman work is keeping me busy as always but I'm very excited to say that I've got a bunch of silly things keeping me very entertained in my own time! Jumping around with
New weekly round-up blog is live on me site! Grab a cuppa and have a read: https://blog.jam-factory.com/weekly-roundup-015/
