remix VS Blitz

Also, Remix sourcemaps didn't work with Cloudflare Workers, but it seems that it should be working already. I should double-check it!

Then in this Github issue, I found something new and flashy, Paraglide JS.

Relates to https://github.com/remix-run/remix/pull/3104

The main goal of this project was to learn something new in a fun way, so I've decided to use Remix for it, and oh my - it was perfect. I was amazed by how powerful it is by using just standard web features such as cookies, query parameters, and forms. Just remember to be cautious when picking a starter template for your project. I picked the default one, and later found out it wasn't supported by Netlify. As a result, I had to delete the entire repository and start the configuration process again. 🙈

Real time data update: Remix supports Server Sent Events e.g. https://github.com/remix-run/examples/tree/main/_official-realtime-app https://github.com/remix-run/remix/discussions/2622

Sometimes the best way to learn is by looking at examples, so we’re going to walk through this Remix issue from Nick Taylor.

You don't need NextJS for SSR. There are less opinionated alternatives like Remix that was built by the React Router team and is backed by Shopify now, you can use something like Razzle or one of its alternatives for semi-opinionated pure SSR or follow the Vite Docs and just do it yourself with express.

- I've found Remix's configurable routes helps to split very large Remix projects into independent features that scales well, when multiple server output bundles drops this will scale the deployments across serverless functions also. RFC. PR.

Blitz is also an open-source project that allows users to access the code and allows to contribute. Their community has generated a lot of impact as well, and has grown rapidly over time since the creation in 2020:

Not yet, I actually just whipped it up quickly last week after I was browsing the Notion subreddit and it reminded me of myspace.

These are the tools I used:

Hello, I'm the creator of Blitz.js (first announced 2.5 years ago)

Today the Blitz.js 2.0 pivot to a modular Next.js toolkit reached Beta status [1]

Previously Blitz abstracted Next.js, but Blitz 2.0 is now a modular toolkit that plugs into any new or existing Next.js app. Blitz picks up where Next.js leaves off, providing libraries and conventions for shipping and scaling small to large apps.

When I first created Blitz, my aim was to have an all-in-one fullstack framework for Javascript like Ruby on Rails. But that proved to be too difficult. I've decided that achieving an all-in-one framework for JS like Rails is too difficult unless you have a ton of funding and don't have to make meaningful money.

The difference with JS is that client-side frameworks like React have an incredible amount of complexity. Trying to manage all of that and all the other fullstack framework stuff like API layers, auth, file uploads, etc is too large of scope.

So now Blitz is no longer trying to do it all and is focusing on all the non-frontend functionality you need to ship web apps.

Going forward, we want to be the most trusted technical resource for rapidly building and scaling full-stack TypeScript apps.
