fastify-express VS vite-plugin-pages

As mentioned in part 2 of this series, using the @fastify/express plugin is the quickest way to get your existing Express application working with Fastify. The plugin adds full Express compatibility to Fastify so that you can easily use any Express middleware — or even an entire Express application — with your Fastify instance, and it will just work with no changes required.

Fastify also supports Express-style middleware but it requires you to install an external plugin such as @fastify/express or @fastify/middie. This eases migration from Express to Fastify, but it should not be used in greenfield projects in favor of hooks. Note that in many cases, you can find a native Fastify plugin that provides the same functionality as Express middleware.

Fastify Express

It's correct that fastify doesn't support middleware out of the box. But Nestjs and its fastify adapter support it. I think they are using this package: https://github.com/fastify/fastify-express

I've found that the fastify-express plugin makes migrating from Express to Fastify much easier: https://github.com/fastify/fastify-express. It has full support for Express middleware and routes, allowing you to migrate things in stages if you prefer.

An excellent alternative to Express or Restify is the Fastify framework. It has full native support for async code and is in active development. There is also a fastify-express plugin available which can help ease your migration path away from Express.

It seems like most of the important plugins have been built and available in the fastify ecosystem. Also with https://github.com/fastify/fastify-express you can use all the express middleware, and actually wrap your entire express application in fastify (obviously just cause you can, not cause you should)

This framework is well maintained, and provides an official compatibility layer for Express to help you migrate your application.

vite-plugin-pages, auto generates routes for Vue components in the src/pages directory.

References to compare with something at all: * https://github.com/samchon/typescript-json (input transformer) * https://github.com/trpc/trpc (state-of-the-art end-to-end api) * https://github.com/spa5k/fastify-file-routes * https://github.com/hannoeru/vite-plugin-pages (frontend file-based routing)

Its more natural fit / easier to use for blog site. https://github.com/hannoeru/vite-plugin-pages is good too

I'm not sure what Nuxt adds. The vite-plugin-pages, has removed the only usecase I had for nuxt.

The good news is that, similar needs have been solved in the vite community with https://github.com/hannoeru/vite-plugin-pages, we just need to port it to webpack and https://github.com/unjs/unplugin got our back.

Thanks! I'll maybe work on some vite plugin to make it work here too since there are plugins like https://github.com/hannoeru/vite-plugin-pages

Since official SolidJS starter template are vite-based we can easily use vite-plugin-pages to create automatic routing a.k.a file based routing with official solid-app-router package.
