Ask HN: How do you introduce new technology?

Build something useful with it, if not remarkable, and show that. Take the top down approach. Don't leave it to the readers to figure out a use case because not only it shows the technology in bad light, since it appears that it was created without any purpose in mind, most people are also too busy/lazy to do it themselves.

Really agree with you. Usually I tried to do some side projects/weekend projects if I want to try out something new. For example, when I learned PHP, I build a website with it. Later when I learned AngularJS, I build another website with it(https://pxlet.com). Now I am interested in VueJS, maybe I will start to build a new one with it. This really helps you understand something in deep.
