Today we're launching an exciting new project: Highlights
Highlights is a syntax highlighter that outputs HTML. It improves on both speed and correctness compared to the existing industry standard libraries.
It's an optional drop-in replacement in Diffs, and it's ready to use today. In fact, it's already powering diffshub․com!
Check it out at diffs.com/highlights
OR `pnpm install @pierre/highlights`

At peak, Lovable creates 250 new repos per second on code.storage.
Simultaneously they improved fetch latency 230% from a more purely object storage solution.
If you’re a product builder and it’s scale and speed that you’re after, signups are now open.

Signups are now open on Code[dot]Storage.
Today, more new repos are created per second on Code Storage than any other platform.
Lovable, Bolt, Amp, Poke, and many more of the largest agentic workloads store their code and agent memory at scale using Code.Storage.

Say hello to Edit mode for Diffs.
It’s been an absolute blast to have worked on this with the @pierrecomputer team. Not only can you edit regular code, but you can also edit diffs as you make changes. Just toggle edit mode. Unreal ship.
👉 diffs.com/edit
Edit is now live on diffs[dot]com.
This isn't just another Monaco or ProseMirror wrapper.
This is an entirely new edit implementation, built on top of our file and diff rendering primitives.
- Over 189 commits
- Over 900 new tests
Try it out now – diffs.com/edit

Celebrate Friday with our new Party Mode. We started by adding theme support, then thought, what if you could browse themes like you browse diffs, and at the same time, and just as fast?
try it with your fav public diff (shift + click to change speeds)

We were curious what rendering Bun's rust rewrite would look like if we used our JS based diffs and trees.
It worked pretty well, so we added a slider to 100x it.
Still works well.
100m+ changed lines in a browser.

A new Git provider for machines by @pierrecomputer.
In Oct, Github shared they were averaging ~230 new repos per minute.
Last week we hit a sustained peak of > 15,000 repos per minute for 3 hours.
And in the last 30 days customers have created > 9m repos🧵

🐘🐘🐘 Excited to share a project I’ve been moonlighting on for the past 3 months: an open-source Postgres schema migration CLI.
After researching all the existing Postgres schema migration tools, I wasn’t satisfied with the available options. So I set out to build the tool I wish existed — with a few key principles:
- Postgres-only: built specifically for Postgres.
- Declarative, Terraform-like workflow: with a human-readable plan instead of opaque diffs.
- Schema-level migrations: making multi-tenant schema operations much easier.
- No shadow database required: validate and plan migrations without the extra infrastructure.
Building a tool like this used to require a huge engineering effort (especially #4). But after experimenting with Claude Sonnet 4, I realized I could accelerate the process enough to tackle it in my spare time. Even so, it still turned into a 50K+ LOC project with 750+ commits and two major refactors along the way.
Now it’s at a stage where I’m ready to share it with the broader community.
