🎨 Ever wanted your website to feel like it came straight out of a Studio Ghibli movie?

I just discovered a Ghibli-inspired ShadCN UI theme that brings that dreamy, hand-painted magic to your components — and it’s absolutely stunning.

If you're as obsessed with that aesthetic as I am, you're gonna love this.

​

I also share a Github Repo you can check out too that goes along well with the video.

Next.js has two easily confused directives: 'use server' and server-only.

'use server' marks a function to run on the server and be exposed as an HTTP endpoint — that’s a Server Action.

But it doesn't prevent the file from being imported in a client component — which causes runtime failures, often in production.

✅ 'use server'

→ Specifically for Server Actions

→ This function is allowed to run on the server only, and can be called from the client via form submissions or imperative actions

→ Enforced at runtime, not build time

✅ server-only

→ Not related to Server Actions at all

→ Just a safety guard 🔐 that says: “This file must never be used in a client component or client context”

→ Enforced at build time, not runtime

⚠️ Key TakeAways

→ Don’t use server-only on Server Actions but for database helpers, private APIs, or files that access environment variables.
→ You can’t rely on 'use server' to protect sensitive server modules.

→ Use them side-by-side in a project, but not in the same file.

​React 19.1 just dropped 💥 — here’s what’s worth a look:

• 🕵️‍♀️ Debug smarter with the new Owner Stack (dev-only), making it easier to trace who rendered what.
• ⏳ Suspense is now everywhere — client, server, even during hydration — with cleaner fallback behavior and better scheduling.
• 🧪 Experiment with unstable_prerender in React Server Components, now with edge streaming support.
