solid-site VS Angular

SolidJS is a popular and open-source declarative JavaScript library that empowers reactive UI interfaces for the web that ensures a performant benchmark, leverages the flexibility of JSX and also provides support for TypeScript, Astro, and Vite.

In 2023 there are a wealth of developer options for front-end: React, Vue, Svelte, Solid and many more.

You may or may not yet have heard about Solid Start, which is the much anticipated upcoming meta framework for Solid.js currently being in beta.

SolidJS is a powerful, pragmatic and productive JavaScript library for building user interfaces with simple and performant reactivity. It stands on the shoulders of giants, particularly React and Knockout. If you've developed with React Functional Components and Hooks before, Solid will feel very natural because it follows the same philosophy as React, with unidirectional data flow, read/write segregation, and immutable interfaces.

Things like Solid (https://www.solidjs.com/) also have no virtual DOM, and the improves are in higher ceiling for performance, lower memory usage, simpler DX (components are not re-executed, there aren't any dependency arrays everywhere), easy high performance (no useRef this and useRef that to make things fast, no useCallback, no React.memo, these things are just obsolete).

Made with: - Windblade (my own version of Tailwind) - Solid JS - Vite

For the time being, this is how I approach web development on pretty much every project I have “architectural control” over. That’s how I worked with Solid.js and Tailwind CSS for the past 2 years. That’s how Vrite is being built. Has worked pretty well so far…

Besides the dangers, mentioned by Angular docs (infinite loops, change detection errors), there is another thing, that might be quite nasty: effects are executed in a reactive context, and any code you call in effect, will be executed in a reactive context. If that code reads some signals, they will be added as dependencies to your effect. Here Alex Rickabaugh explains the details.

In June 2023, the Angular team raised a new RFC to implement control flow syntaxes within Angular. They gave the following rationale for introducing control flow syntax:

For scheduling, I use awesome code I found in the Angular source code.

Just to give you more context, I led the migration of several AngularJS applications to the newer Angular Framework. My client finally decided to make that move following the AngularJS deprecation announcement (stay up to date please 🙏)️.

Angular v17 was released some months ago with a ton of new features, a brand new logo and the new blog angular.dev.
