Jotai, now with Optics
More and more functional paradigms have been finding their way into our contracting work. This really accelerated when we started using React Hooks a while back. In fact, back in the day, we were tasked to convert a legacy Angular ThreeJS project we had written earlier to React / react-three-fiber for performance, ease of maintenance, etc. Given the increasing complexity, we wanted a more atomic, composable state management system (of course this was before Recoil had been introduced). After some due diligence, we settled on Grammarly's Focal. This library, although a bit older, is powerful and introduced us to the intriguing FP concepts of Optics, Lenses, etc

Ask HN: How would you refactor a big project in 2023?
A tool like https://thin.dev/ might be good for you. You can port and serve functionality a little bit at a time into thin and use their managed postgres db and the schema editor to handle the new fields in the backend.

Prisma vs. Thin Backend
Postgres database has been gaining more popularity because of its advanced database and scalability. Created by digitally induced, Thin Backend is simplifying Postgres by giving users a backend server that has an API that connects with Postgres DB. You can integrate Thin Backend with:
- Thin Backend - Instant Postgres Backend for React/Vue/Svelte/... Apps with Realtime, Optimistic Updates & Auto-generated TypeScript Bindings
- Thin Backend

10 Years of Meteor: My experience with a pioneering JavaScript framework
Real-time by default for everything is really a fun way to write web apps. A little bit inspired by Meteor we've build Thin Backend, which provides a real-time API for querying data and writing to a postgres database.
