Project mention: Mastering Real-Time Collaboration: Building Figma and Miro-Inspired Features with Supabase | dev.to | 2024-05-11Supabase is a backend as a service visual platform that allows you to create postgres DB with minimum code. Their documentation is so good that it feels like home and you can get your project online in no matter of time.
Strapi is a Headless CMS built with TypeScript. It has a backend and a frontend. Just take a look at how many configuration files it has just for running the project.
Project mention: Bypass CORS errors while testing your APIs using Hoppscotch 🔧 | dev.to | 2024-04-17How can Hoppscotch help you intercept the API calls? 👽
> 2. ORMs do not hide SQL nastiness.
This is certainly true!
I mean: ORMs are now well known to "make the easy queries slightly more easy, while making intermediate queries really hard and complex queries impossible".
I think the are of ORMs is over. It simply did not deliver.
If a book on SQL is --say-- 100 pages, a book on Hibernate is 400 pages. So much to learn just to make the easy queries slightly easier to type? Just not worth it.
I prefer jooq any day over ORMs. And dont get me started over what tools like Hasuna have to offer.
There are also some languages (forgot the names) that are SQL-done-right. Select in the back, more type safe, more logic, more in the same steps as the query gets executed. These need to be adopted by PG and MySQL and we're good to go. (IMHO)

Project mention: How to Deploy Directus as a Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) on Koyeb | dev.to | 2024-04-25Directus is an open data platform built to serve as a headless CMS, API, or Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) for other applications. It is designed to make data accessible to people of all technical levels and to make it easy to build data-centric applications. Directus is extensible and can be integrated with many different frontend technologies to create stable, well-structured development and user experiences.
Project mention: Ask HN: Does Anyone Use a "Closed Core" Software Model? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-16> "Are there examples of companies adopting this model?"
Many examples across the industry:
- Autodesk AutoCAD (closed) + Plugins/Addons (many open)
- MS Windows (closed) + Many 3rd party programs (open)
- Github (closed) + Github Actions (open)
- Npm (closed) + Npm modules (mostly open)
> "What are the potential benefits or pitfalls?"
Benefits:
- Harder to replicate, the company gets to keep the "secret sauce" a secret
- Opening up a way to "extend" the platform means 3rd party developers add value to your system
- The core isn't open, so less effort is required to maintain compare to OpenSource
Pitfalls:
- Closed-source is hard to verify, company is essentially saying "trust me bro"
- Less innovation, as user's can't contribute to the core
> "How does it impact community engagement and software adoption?"
There's hardcore FOSS advocates that will hate anything not fully open. But a business has to make money and protect it's IP, having a "closed core" is one way to do that and ensure a sustainable business model.
Another approach is the opposite, open-core + closed-premium-addons. An example of this is "React Admin"
- Open Core -> https://github.com/marmelab/react-admin
- Premium Modules Offering -> https://react-admin-ee.marmelab.com/

Project mention: Lenster a decentralized and permissionless social media app | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-25
Project mention: Ask HN: How Can I Make My Front End React to Database Changes in Real-Time? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-17I'm interested in this problem also!
I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences.
AFAIK this problem can be solved by:
1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take!

Project mention: Things I wish I knew before moving 50K lines of code to React Server Components | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-01Actually, it's worse than that. Next has started throwing errors if it statically detects you even _importing_ hooks inside of a React Server Component environment:
- https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/10974
- https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/11167
To the point that Lenz Weber( a maintainer of Apollo Client, and my co-maintainer on Redux Toolkit), is considering resorting to a package that wraps and re-exports all of React's public API just to avoid that static analysis:

Project mention: Amplication: Instantly generate production-ready Node.js back end apps | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-30
I had the opportunity to work on a github issue in an open source project to add a Github workflow that runs if some files where modified in the path packages/twenty-website and checks that the website is still building.
Project mention: Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-07I didn't see a v5 tag in order to know, and I have no idea what "utils/graphile" does for the project, but one will want to ensure they are aware of its licensing scheme https://github.com/graphile/crystal/blob/db8894c74eb0ec3fe96...
Project mention: How do you navigate an api response where you don't know the exact structure? | /r/webdev | 2023-11-09I grab the response off of the network tab. Either make a structure manually or use something like QuickType
Project mention: Integrating GraphQL Codegen with Storyblok: Step-by-Step Guide | dev.to | 2024-01-15The @graphql-codegen library is a bridge between your GraphQL schema and the actual code you write. It automates the generation of boilerplate code, ensuring that your data fetching layer is always up to date with your content structure.
