  • Show HN: React Routing in 120 lines (including comments)
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 May 2022
    I've used a lot of routers and my favorite is still page.js[1]. It hasn't been updated in years. But it's small, is Express-compatible (i.e. server/client routes can use the same code), and, more importantly, is hackable. I'll never use a router tied to a certain framework again (react, nextjs, etc.) because you trade flexibility for perceived convenience (e.g. using folder structure as route structure, or React component tree as route structure). But it's a terrible trade-off that paints you into a corner later, IMO. Routing can get really niche and site-dependent, so having it fully under your control is worth it.

  • Dynamic routes using vanilla HTML CSS JS?
    1 project | /r/webdev | 4 Apr 2022
    Use a simple routing library like pages.js, but in this case I feel it might be overkill.

    I've used Page.js for a couple of SPA projects. It was last updated a couple of years ago. The documentation isn't the best, but the client-side router does its job.
  • Building a blog with Svelte: Dynamic imports For Svelte components

    We're using onMount to trigger the dynamic import when this component is first rendered. My blog uses page.js as a router, so these dynamic imports are triggered by page transitions, but the logic is the same.
