fquery VS Next.js

Similar benefits without codegen (based on decorator magic) for a python based stack:

* Use dataclasses for both database schema and the user facing operations

Re: Conways law at Facebook

I was at Facebook when GraphQL was invented, maintaining a backend storage service where a core assumption was that storage should be reorganized based on access patterns and that predicates should be pushed down to storage where they can be executed more efficiently.

GraphQL was hard to push predicates down, because you don't know which of the edges were written in PHP.

My response was fquery[1], which is like what's being discussed here but with python as the source language instead of swift and amenable to preserving the largest possible query structure for backend optimizers, including SQL optimizers.

It has some early demos converting a GraphQL/fquery into SQL where possible. It should be possible to add enough metadata to fquery to identify if an edge is non-trivial (calls into another microservice) or trivial (can be optimized to a storage backend or SQL).

Next.js: For the website and the admin dashboard

Until the time of writing, there is no official example of how to enable runtime environmental variables in a Dockerized Next.js app, as utilizing unstable_noStore would only dynamically evaluate variables on the server (node.js runtime). There is also an interesting discussion regarding this topic on GitHub.

next.js is a very popular React framework. remix-adonisjs includes more functionality through the AdonisJS backend ecosystem, and should be easier to self-host and self-manage.

Remember to start the Next.js server with pnpm dev.

We want to share with you the best testing setup we've experienced - and this includes using Playwright and NextJS. It's a setup we've come up with for Infinite React DataGrid, which is a complex component, with lots of things to test, but this configuration has helped us ship with more confidence and speed.

If you're acquainted with NextJs, the directives will come as no surprise.
