cypress-realworld-app VS realworld

Cypress documentation

The full source code of the examples shown in this article can be found here. The example web app is based on the react-note-taking-app built on top of the T3 Stack. The Cypress tests and configuration are based on the best practices documented in the cypress-realworld-app.

I’d encourage you to look at https://docs.cypress.io

Cypress is a modern, automated testing suite. It's a fully open source testing framework based on JavaScript and is built with libraries like Mocha and Chai that support BDD and TDD assertion styles. Further, using Cypress will be easy if you’re familiar with writing tests in JavaScript.

It's mainly about showing Cypress (which is something like Selenium or Playwright or what have you) but integrates it into a real world example with commonly used tools and frameworks.

I think the Cypress documentation is absolutely great:

https://docs.cypress.io/

One of the better things about cypress are how they create so many how-to guides for a variety of scenarios. Take implementing Cypress into a CI runners, they have guides on how to effectively use it nearly everywhere:

In addition, we have also prepared over 30+ examples of real-world tests against the Real World App. This application has been around for a couple of years now, but since it contains some rather advanced concepts and examples, much of it was beyond reach for people just getting started. To solve this problem we have written in-depth articles for every example which explains line by line what each test is doing.

Cypress.io is just a test runner, but it can be paired with Testomat.io, a test management system for automated tests. Let's see how Testomat.io can answer the questions risen above. We will use Cypress Realworld App as you might have guessed, this is a good example of a project with well-written Cypress tests.

In light of all this, it became exceedingly clear that someone else needed to step in and help. Why not me? Well, it can be me. And, after 3 months of development, I am happy to announce (again) dwayne/elm-conduit (demo), an open-source Elm SPA for RealWorld's Medium.com clone.

It's just for web app (a Todo app). Your GIS AND CLI ideas are interesting, I haven't seen anything similar to realworld for those.

So what would be a better benchmark? Perhaps a "standard" "real world" app, like https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld

Or something simpler?

RealWorld example app is a full-stack application called "Conduit" that consists of a backend that serves JSON API and a frontend UI. There are numerous implementations for different languages and frameworks, but in this tutorial you will be using the Spring backend and the React frontend.

Github has millions of projects, some large fraction with more than 100 stars, so it doesn't seem like you are searching very hard. But more importantly, why "100 stars"? Stars are meaningless and arbitrary. Many developers use stars like bookmarks. I just did a quick search and noticed a project like realworld (just a demo for learning, 65 contributors) has have more stars than Bitcoin (900+ developers, perhaps you have heard of it?)

I feel you, context API sometimes overcomplicates everything. Let me introduce to you RealWorld. It is a great project that uses composition to make its structure scalable. It is actually a codebase that implements various fragments of a larger scale project such as Medium or Twitter. Check it out here: https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld. I hope this helps!
