This Month in Solid #6: corvu updates, clerk SDK, and more 😎

Hello friends 👋
August has arrived, and with it, the sixth issue of This Month in Solid!
July was a slow month from an updates perspective, but we got a ton of exciting content online.
Before we start looking at what happened, the usual review of how This Month in Solid works.

The format

Inspired by Ryan Carniato This Week in JavaScript and Sébastien Lorber This Week In React, I plan to publish a compilation of updates, posts, and videos about the Solid world at the end of every month.

Each post will be split in the following way:

• Solid Updates: updates from the core team, organization, or documentation.
• Ecosystem Updates: updates from people building stuff for or with Solid.
• Found online: videos, posts, and tweets about Solid and/or Solid-related topics.
• Things to look out for: announced things related to Solid and its community.

The goal is to give you a monthly update about all things SolidJS. So, without further ado, let's dive into our sixth This Month in Solid.
