Polypane with Kilian Valkhof

Author: softwareengineeringdaily.com May 6, 2025 Duration: 48:35
Polypane is a specialized web development browser that simplifies creating and testing modern websites. A key feature is that it provides multiple screen sizes at once, with synchronized scrolling and interactions, so developers can test different layouts and breakpoints simultaneously. Polypane also focuses on accessibility tools, real-time previews, and debugging features. Kilian Valkhof is the Founder of Polypane which develops the Polypane browser. In this episode he speaks with Josh Goldberg about his career and the creation of his browser. Josh Goldberg is an independent full time open source developer in the TypeScript ecosystem. He works on projects that help developers write better TypeScript more easily, most notably on typescript-eslint: the tooling that enables ESLint and Prettier to run on TypeScript code. Josh regularly contributes to open source projects in the ecosystem such as ESLint and TypeScript. Josh is a Microsoft MVP for developer technologies and the author of the acclaimed Learning TypeScript (O’Reilly), a cherished resource for any developer seeking to learn TypeScript without any prior experience outside of JavaScript. Josh regularly presents talks and workshops at bootcamps, conferences, and meetups to share knowledge on TypeScript, static analysis, open source, and general frontend and web development.
