Ask HN: Freelance website builders/maintainers, what's in your 2024 toolkit?
My most recent project launched in January. NextJS 14 client integrated with PayloadCMS (http://payloadcms.com) for the back-end. I love both technologies in theory, but they're both going through a renaissance period and "bleeding edge" doesn't even begin to describe it.
If I'm just building a client app, create-react-app is still my go to.
Before now, I'd been building on WordPress for 10+ years for anything client-administered. Planning on using Payload from here on out.

Next.js 14: No New APIs & Breaking Changes
James, the co-founder of Payload, a headless CMS with MongoDB support, shared his insights on the drawbacks and limitations of using a headless CMS in the context of web development. He challenged the promises often made about headless CMS, such as separation of concerns and ease of content migration, revealing that these claims often don't align with the reality faced by developers and clients. James is considering integrating Payload directly with Next.js to overcome these limitations and offer a better developer experience, including out-of-the-box features and simpler deployments. Should Payload move to Next.js?

Payload 2.0 released, TypeScript headless CMS and app framework
Hey HN, Dan here from Payload (YC S22), an open-source headless CMS that closes the gap between CMS and traditional app frameworks. Weâre excited to announce Payload 2.0!
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload
If youâve not heard of Payload youâre probably wondering why the world needs another CMS. Payload connects to your database and runs without the vendor lock-in and black box of SaaS based CMS solutions, and itâs far more extensible than off-the-shelf SaaS options. Enterprises in specific have been finding value in this control, and theyâre using Payload to power content infrastructure that simply isnât possible through integrating with SaaS webhooks alone.
Todayâs announcement is all about features that strike at two neglected areas in the world of CMS. The first is application framework level control over your database that youâd expect with tools like Ruby on Rails or Laravel and the second area is making content editors effective by seeing their edits in realtime.
Here are the highlights on what weâve been working on:
*Postgres Support*âin the same week we launched about two years ago,people asked for Postgres support. It brings me pure cathartic joy to finally give this to our community. To be fair, MongoDB has been a perfect solution for our architecture and itâs still recommended. But with a new adapter pattern for databases, you can stand your Payload project up on Postgres and run the same functionality as you can with MongoDB now. The crazy part is that we didnât compromise on how nesting complex fields works. We could have taken the âeasyâ road and wrote things to JSON, but we leaned fully into the relational way and built the right tables and native column types for fields all the way throughout.
*Database Migrations*âmaintaining a production app while deploying schema changes is something you come to expect from ORMs and backend frameworks, but rarely CMS. Payload 2.0 delivers full, first-party migration support all in TypeScript. We took a lot of care on the developer experience here so that when working with Postgres, thanks to our friends at Drizzle, we generate the migration files in TS that add the tables and fields for you. If you have to manipulate data before or after, you have a clear way forward now.
*Database Transactions*âwhen a request involves multiple inserts, updates or deletes to the database, you need control to rollback all changes when one part fails. The built-in Payload CRUD operations do this now for you and your custom hooks and other code can too.
*Live Preview*âthe ability to quickly draft content and see it in context of a website is a literal game changer. We have taken the best dev experience of any headless CMS and given the editors a reason to demand Payload over the others.
*Lexical Richtext Editor*âour original Slate based editor has seen some great features added, like storing related documents directly in the JSON, uploads and any customizations. Unfortunately Slate leaves a lot to be desired on how to extend it, especially compared to Lexical. In a few short weeks weâve built up a new editor experience inspired by Medium and Notion. Now type â/â and have embedded relationships, uploads, and custom blocks popping right up to be dropped in. Then drag and drop them to reorder your content. If you still want Slate, we continue to support that too.
Weâre not compromising on editor experience. This is how weâre bringing the âheadâ to the headless CMS.
Building critical applications on top of a CMS may sound like blasphemy but it doesnât have to be that way.
Thanks for reading! I look forward to hearing what you think.

Ask HN: Best OSS SQL Query Builder in Any Language
https://prisma.io is popular as I understand it. I've been trying out https://strapi.io the last week and am thoroughly impressed.
They both do much more than build queries. One big thing both do is automate database migration calculations. Strapi goes further and gives you a CMS and admin UI on top, as well as doing a lot more of the complex query building from a json object. Both still require a fundamental understanding of the data model and SQL

Forgot password flow with Strapi and NextAuth
On a side note. Where do all these endpoints come from? Strapi is open source. We can read the source code. All these endpoint come from the Users and permissions plugin. So, if we go to Strapi on github and browse around the files a bit eventually you will find the auth.js file that contains all of the routes. You can also find the Strapi controllers in there if you're interested.
