faustjs VS webdevamin

Yeah, in hindsight, we would have used Next/Vercel. So we're tactically moving over to that. There are many new frameworks, like Astro, that are really exciting, but it seems like Next is the best choice if you have a data-heavy app that has a dynamic mix of SSR and static pages. For Wordpress in particular, I'd recommend that you check out Faust.js. It's build with Next and I'm amazed by how well it works with Wordpress without much effort: https://faustjs.org/

https://faustjs.org is a great headless Wordpress solution for Nextjs. I've tried several CMS solutions and ultimately WordPress is invariably the friendliest option from a client perspective.

I'm working through a large project where we're leveraging WordPress and Next.js. Check out Faust.js (https://faustjs.org/) which works as a layer to handle a lot of the query/template/routing stuff that maybe isn't super-intuitive when trying to hook WordPress up headlessly...

- FaustJS (built for headless WP on NextJS w/ full site editing capabilities)

Faust.js is the front-end JavaScript framework built on top of Next.js, created to make developing headless WordPress sites easier. The idea of this new version is to make a parity between the WordPress world that a developer might be used to but replicate it as much as possible in the JavaScript front-end world.

This is where it started. Then there is also Faustjs started by WPEngine. https://faustjs.org/

Starting August 1, 2023, Railway is going to remove their free Developer plan and people have to switch to Hobby plan which is €5 a month. First Heroku and now Railway. Where do I host my portfolio website for free?

So about a year ago, I wanted to make a transition from being a full-time employee to being a freelancer. First I've created many social media accounts, spread my business word-by-mouth and developed my own website. I have to say that I am really happy I've took the step. To up til now I've had way better results when it comes to developing websites and web applications compared to being an employee: better performance, speed, accessibility, less bugs, etc. I'm just more productive doing freelancing. And normally, being happy makes a human more productive. Compared to being an employee, I feel like I am doing true craftsmanship: building apps for my clients from zero to the last feature. And later on extending them even more. And I am not only talking about making simple websites with WordPress. Some of my mid-large sized projects are custom made with code like Next.js and Laravel. I like to keep my clients under contact so they always come to me to extending features and have a long term partnership. And having written the code myself, I intimately know almost everything of the project, allowing me to pick up where I left off without much effort. This is because I always create a "private readme" and an one page documentation so I know from where I should continue and I also have my own private mini-Notion like SaaS tailored for freelancing.

I did use WordPress for my clients. Even if it was only for frontend without backoffice needed. But nowadays, I am just using Next.js (React framework) to build static websites and host it for free somewhere like Netlify or Cloudflare. My website for example was also made with Wordpress couple of years ago. But I wanted to ant up my web dev skills so I revamped my whole website into Next.js. It is connected with Strapi as a headless CMS though.

I don’t recommend using Wordpress as a Headless CMS because eventually you will have maintain and update plugins and more. If you know how to code, I would recommend PayloadCMS. My website is currently built with Next.js and Strapi. But I am planning to move to PayloadCMS in the near future. Strapi is good if you prefer no-code. PayloadCMS in case you know how to code with Typescript and Node.js.
