sidewinder VS typeconv

7 months ago I posted here about my open source starter kit Sidewinder https://github.com/stribny/sidewinder. The goal was to create a kit that would come prepared with development and deployment tools, mainly to deploy a Django app to a single private virtual server.

You can have a look at https://github.com/stribny/sidewinder where I styled the most important pages (https://github.com/stribny/sidewinder/tree/master/templates/account) for email-based login (no social login).

If you are talking about end-to-end UI tests, then using Playwright you can write your tests in Python and execute them together with other tests that you run with pytest. I have exactly this in https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/ starter kit.

You should probably really define what you need a bit better. I have a starter kit (https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/) that has some good defaults out of the box (like using django-allauth). Pair it with e.g. https://github.com/paddle-python/dj-paddle for Paddle (or something similar for Stripe) and you have a good base.

Feel free to check my Ansible playbook (`deployment`) folder of my starter kit: https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/

You can see it working in a Django project here: https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/

Check out https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/, maybe that's what you next project will need :D

My first choice if the product is a good fit would be old school Django deployed to a single VPS (no docker). I am creating a public starter kit that does exactly that, including the deployment part: https://stribny.github.io/sidewinder/

However, there are lots of use cases that would call for additional SPA (Vue/Nuxt), or other tech. So in that case I'd add it or replace the tech stack entirely. I'd probably avoid specialized cloud services, might consider something like https://supabase.com tho if the app doesn't need a complex backend.

So I'm assuming you're talking about generating Rust types from TypeScript? If you can get your typescript definitions into OpenAPI (i.e, via typeconv) you can use the openapi generator cli to generate rust types. However this is geared towards web backends rather than pure IPC or cross-lang interop.

The class-validator / class-transform looks really nice for formatting/validation but there is also joi. suretype is attractive since theoretically typeconv could generate jsonSchema for json-schema-faker and Open API docs.
