Put country first. Postcode doesn’t make sense without one. Prepopulating one based on location is generally okay, but don’t assume it will always be the same.
I'm definitely not, but the lazy method is just to cache the data your customers provide, or curate some data for the countries you are most interested in.
That gets around countries that consider their postal code database a licensed dataset.
From UI side, I’d probably not autofill, but add autocomplete (e.g. using <datalist>¹). This way you can still have browser autofill the user’s address if saved (do also set the autocomplete² props correctly!), and suggest one or multiple variants you have in your database, and let the user fill it out manually still, without having to find and click “My address isn’t here”.
Do you work with non-US companies? I have a company in Estonia, and hold some reserve cash (mix of dollars and euro) on a Wise account. It pays 2.20% variable APR, but I’m starting to explore other options :-)
I feel we need a modular verdion of Flash: standalone editor that produces just the animations with Flash-like mechanics, SDKs for major OSS game frameworks, and possibly an editor component you can use in IDEs. You then drop in animation file(s) and track them in VCS like any other asset.
Edit: but of course, the standalone variant should work for non-game animations as well!
