Passkeys Demo Passkeys are pretty neat! I wanted to get a demo working in Val Town so I ported over https://github.com/maximousblk/passkeys-demo. One challenge was that the original extensively uses DenoKV store with compound keys and values. I created @stevekrouse/DenoSyntheticKV as a replacement for DenoKV. It uses SuperJSON to encode the keys and values. You can find the client-side script for the main page here: @stevekrouse/passkey_script

inTheBackground With the addition of the "early return" feature of web handlers, you can now process short background tasks in vals. This can be really useful for occasions where an immediate response is required, with a subsequent update a few seconds later e.g. a Discord bot that calls ChatGPT needs to respond within a few seconds, which can be too fast for the AI to generate a response. We can instead reply immediately and then update that message later, inTheBackground Simply wrap something in inTheBackground and it will do just that! In this example, we log something a few seconds later than the web response is sent back.
