I thought he was making stuff up - "t3 stack vs t4 stack". But about 2 minutes in, I realized that I'd heard of a few things that he's talking about so I looked it up and they're real!

I think it's possible everything he's saying is true, more or less. LOL

t3: https://create.t3.gg

t4: https://t4stack.com

We start with a project that was bootstrapped with create-t3-app. For internationalization we use next-intl and set it up as described in the getting started guide. With this initial project setup we can jump into implementing localized error messages.

I used create-t3-app to scaffold the Next.js app, with TypeScript, Prisma, and "app router" enabled in the options. You can also use create-next-app for the job and install Prisma manually.

I agree that the quantity of publicly available code isn't the most reliable indicator of someone's seniority.

My issue with this individual arises from the discrepancy between his public claims of significant expertise in the content he produces. He positions himself as a highly experienced developer, attracting a large following of junior developers who take his advice at face value.

I am trying to collect data points supporting his claims of seniority. For instance, his website prominently features a statement that he is the creator of the T3 Stack. However, a review of the contributor statistics for the T3 Stack (https://github.com/t3-oss/create-t3-app/graphs/contributors)... minimal contributions from him, which raises questions about the validity of his claims.

I would recommend - https://create.t3.gg/

It uses the following, which as of late are pretty well know and common, so you can punch in your problems to stackoverflow, google, or chatgpt and get some pretty good answers.

It uses:

Nextjs (React), typescript, trpc (typescript rpc), auth, tailwind, and Prisma (ORM)

Though of course these could go out of fashion tomorrow, but I don't think the essential idea behind these libs and frameworks are that wacky, unique or unordinary.

Prisma ORM, is a little opinionated, and you could swap it out for Drizzle, which is basically typescript side sugared SQL.

TRPC might be also be a little sticky because it is tied to typescript, this is the tradeoff for the buttery smooth coupling for the fullstack experience. I think there exists a typed-rest solution out there, but haven't used it.

Personal anecdata, I used this stack for a little hobby project and it was FUN.

Open SaaS was built with Typescript, and because it’s a full-stack app, type safety from the back-end to the front-end can be a real lifesaver. I mean, some opinionated stacks have gotten hugely popular on this basis.

Let's start by creating a Next.js application. We will use the T3 stack (TypeScript, TailwindCSS, and Prisma ORM) for this tutorial to skip installing and configuring all the dependencies which is out of the scope of this article. You can find more information about the T3 stack.

You still would need to add Stripe but there are so many examples publicly available that it should be straight forward

Vite and Next.js are both top 5 modern development framework right now. They are both great depending on your use case so we’ll discuss 4 areas: Architecture, main features, developer experience and production readiness. After learning about these we’ll have a better idea of which one is best for your project.

> It’s important to be aware of what you are getting if you go with React, and what you are getting is a far cry from what a framework would offer, with all the corresponding pros and cons.

Would you like to elaborate on that?

In my experience, with something as great, size/ecosystem-wise as React, there will almost always be at least one "mainstream" package for whatever you might want to do with it, that integrates pretty well. Where a lot of things might come out of the box with a framework, with a library I often find myself just needing to install the "right" package, and from there it's pretty much the same.

For example, using https://angular.io/guide/i18n-overview or installing and using https://react.i18next.com/

Or something like https://angular.io/guide/form-validation out of the box, vs installing and using https://formik.org/

Or perhaps https://angular.io/guide/router vs https://reactrouter.com/en/main

Even adding something that's not there out of the box is pretty much the same, like https://primeng.org/ or https://primereact.org/

React will typically have more fragmentation and therefore also choice, but I don't see those two experiences as that different. Updates and version management/supply chain will inevitably be more of a mess with the library, admittedly.

Now, projects like Next https://nextjs.org/ exist and add what some might regard as the missing pieces and work well if you want something opinionated and with lots of features out of the box, but a lot of those features (like SSR) are actually pretty advanced and not always even necessary.

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.
