tmuxp VS flyctl

Using tmux + tmuxp[1] you can load a pre-configured session and execute arbitrary shell commands for the session, window and pane. I use this to set up shells and editors in the correct dirs (and/or hosts), load lang environments, set env vars and source some zsh aliases and functions that I only want per project. The end result is that I can set up my dev environment (shells with different environments, neovim windows, test runner, various linters I don't wannt integrate into nvim) with a single "tmuxp load ".

As for apps: - I also use Zathura for PDFs, which is fine for me because it also has vim bindings, and I like the recolor feature. - I mostly use Alacritty + tmux for terminals, because I also use tmuxp. Although I run some quick commands in vterm. - I'm pretty happy with Firefox + Tridactyl as my main browser (by the way, I think Tridactyl is more powerful than Vimium). - My passwords are also stored in pass, which I access with pass.el and my password-store-ivy. The latter replicates some rofi script I used earlier. - I'm fine with dired for files and archives, but I run dired-do-compress or just enter tar / zip / ... commands in dired-do-async-shell-command. I don't work with that many archives anyway. - Honestly, I very rarely have to search for something across my entire machine (or home directory), and in such cases, I just run find :-) But I often use counsel-rg and deadgrep to fuzzy search across a given project.

Looks very simple I think I can do something based on ThePrimeagen's script that works for me, someone else also commented to tmuxp. It's probably better to look for solutions without having to do everything within neovim. Thanks

https://tmuxp.git-pull.com/ does the same thing, but I think it's smoother to work with. It does support freezing current panes. yaml config

You use iTerm shortcuts instead. You can customize those as you like. So it feels just like using iTerm, but the panes are running in tmux.

The main reason to do this (for me) is to use (tmuxp)[https://tmuxp.git-pull.com] to configure window sets for different projects / clients and start them up quickly.

Everything is configured with tmuxp and I can set the whole thing up with a single command.

https://github.com/tmux-python/tmuxp provides essential startup utility and scriptability.

tmuxp v1.12.0, GitHub, Release notes, Docs

mprocs looks pretty cool. In the past I've used Tmuxinator or Tmuxp configs for stuff like that.

Create an account on Fly.io.

You can learn more about fly.io and tigris, we will need to create an account on both platforms for this project regardless. Anyway with the theory out of the way let's get started in the next section as we create our accounts and start building the app.

Fly.io is a platform that helps you run your apps and databases closer to your users all around the world. It takes your app code, packages it up neatly, and puts it on virtual machines that can be quickly started or stopped. This makes your app faster for users and more reliable. Fly.io is easy to use, works well for small projects or personal apps. It's a great way to make sure your app runs smoothly for people no matter where they are.

In this post, we'll start from scratch, running FerretDB locally via Docker, trying out the connection with mongosh and the MongoDB Node.js client, and finally deploy FerretDB to Fly.io for a production ready set up.

2- fly.io

Fly is a cloud platform that focuses on global edge computing. Fly specializes in high-performance hosting and provides a global network of edge locations. Fly is known for its scalability and performance optimizations.

But videototextai.com is built using NextJS + Firebase auth + Firestore and a backend deployed at fly.io . Fly makes it really easy to deploy docker containers and that is IMO the fastest way to develop, you can setup a local setup

Alternatives explored: * northflank: While running the wrk test, requests were taking 3-7 seconds. Couldn't repeat Heroku's phenomenon of "400ms-800ms" during such a load test. * fly.io: Reliability: It’s Not Great * render.com: I remember the time when indiehackers.com was down because of an outage on Render, not sure if it's worth trusting.

For personal/portfolio projects fly.io and render.com both have free tiers that support the major backend frameworks and Postgres at the very least (although I think with Render at least the DB expires and has to be reloaded after a certain amount of time, have not personally tried it).

We must download and install CLI for fly.io. If you use Windows, you can download the installer by this link. Or you can also use PowerShell script as well.
