I'm really excited about the future of Astro. What do you all think?

TypeScript is FRUSTRATING sometimes. Recently, I was working with TypeScript in a Next.js/React application, and I struggled to find the appropriate types for an event handler. Unfortunately, I've had similar issues a lot in the past.
Maybe it's just me, but I think frameworks could do a better job of adding documentation in TypeScript. I feel like many people use TypeScript as their default, and the documentation should follow suit. So, a couple of questions for you.
1. Are you using TypeScript on a regular basis? With which frameworks?
2. Do you ever struggle with incorporating TypeScript into those frameworks? Do you feel like the documentation truly embraces TypeScript?

For the next 3-6 months, I'm going to be partnering with Xata and Sentry on a build in public project using Next.js. My plan is to build tools around improving experiences at conferences for individuals and conferences.
The first set of tools I want to build is around working with videos. What types of questions or topics would you like to see me cover around: video uploads, optimizing videos, exporting videos, etc?

Tomorrow, my wife and I are having our first child! 🥳 We have been spending all of our free tier trying to get the house ready. Still lots to do lol
Anyways, I've got a couple of videos already recorded to get posted automatically, but I'll be light on creating and engaging for the next several weeks. In the meantime, I've got an amazing backlog of video ideas, so I can't wait to get back to it when we are ready. If you've got any other requests or ideas, feel free to add them below 👇

- md and mdx
- layouts and SEO
- dynamic routes
- working with a headless cms
What other suggestions do you have?
