Christoph Nakazawa released fbtee 6.0, the TypeScript rewrite of Meta's fbt with a Rust compiler, replacing hacky translation wrappers with real React elements.
Highlights:
- Rich translations now return React Fragments; components embedded in translations preserve state and refs across parent re-renders
- Text translations return primitive strings on both client and server, with an explicit API for use outside React
- New ESLint rule (prefer-fbs), numeric parameters and locale-aware plural/number formatting for fbs
- 63% faster React update time in the production update benchmark, with cached translation lookup essentially unchanged
