unified VS sidekiq

From TFA:

> My idea was that surely it's possible to write a bunch of markdown, and then have that get wrapped in a bunch of JSX tags that come pre-styled, using the styles of your existing repo? For example, what I expected was to be able to write *test* (Markdown for bold) and then get a component that looked liketest where is a library-defined React component

It surely is possible, so perhaps I can share some links if others are wondering the same thing.

If you like to roll your own solution for that, you can use the unified ecosystem: https://unifiedjs.com/

However, if you want JSX just do what everyone does and reach for MDX:

Styling the blog, figure out the eco-system within UnifiedJs, remark-rehype, oh boy, I could write another blog with that.

To build the Markdown editor (and the preview, mostly), I decided to use unified, an ecosystem of tools allowing the developer to parse a format into an abstract tree and back into another format (for example, markdown to html) and modify said tree (for example, to add specific classes to certain html elements before they are converted to an actual html string. The basics of how to do so can be found in this article, but they mostly consist of:

It’ll take you a few hours to become proficient in the “unified” syntax tree libraries. So worth it. Easy fully customized conversion to/from html, react, plain text, markdown, you name it. https://unifiedjs.com/

Why universal? Because a lot of languages are simillar in a bunch of ways and it might be good to reuse existing parts of the compiler to speed up the process of writing new DSLs for example. Also a pretty big use-case is not for compilers itself but just for transformers like Markdown to HTML, there are already a lot of libraries (like https://github.com/unifiedjs/unified for ASTs and https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/ for parsing) that try achieve similar goals but they are not working together.

Unified is a framework to process Markdown. It's a plugin-based tool that allows you to inspect and modify the way Markdown is converted to other formats like HTML.

under the hood, the markdown is parsed by the unified remark and rehype processors, which in turn under the hood manipulate the markdown + HTML as an AST, which gives a lot of flexibility on parsing and rendering markdown. The editor uses them as plugins, which allows me to pick the features and inject them into the editor, one such injectable feature is the custom-made "copy from anywhere & paste as markdown" feature.

Having the flexibility to create custom React Components for markdown is essential and with react-markdown, we can achieve this in just a few lines of code. Boosting performance, increasing link security, and having overall increased capabilities for our markdown data are what we achieve here. Aside from the improvements within our application, this component is super easy to use and taps us into the unifiedjs (giving us superpowers!).

The Markdown processor used unified assets.

Here's some info if you're considering Render. Node docs, and you might also be interested in connecting to MongoDB Atlas. Or you can deploy an instance of MongoDB yourself.

Django is fun! Not sure how helpful this might be, but I work at Render and we have a tutorial on deploying Django as well as an in-depth walk-through for using Django with Saleor for e-commerce. Looking at those might give you some good context and example structures to work with. Good luck!

Ok so i m trying to deploy my app on render.com but i am getting the following error:

Cloud Application Hosting for Developers | Render

I understand why you might want to find a free solution, but I wanted to share that Render (where I work) has managed Postgres. You can use it for free for 90 days before deciding if you want to upgrade to a paid plan. I'd recommend a managed instance for a production environment.

I've tried to deploy to render.com on free tier, but it seems that each deploy resets the db.sqlite3 file, and I'd need it to persist.

Not sure if cpanel has this capability but railway.app, render.com, cleavr + aws or digital ocean droplet, coolify(open source) has the capability to set this up for you automatically. If you want to self host ssr manually, you'll need a aws ec2, digital ocean droplet, vultr server or linode server, then install nginx and nodejs, then setup your nuxt server.

Recently, I came to know that Heroku is going to stop supporting free services. I have almost all the projects running in Heroku and I never tried any services. Many people pointed out that Render is the best free alternative to the Heroku. So I am giving it a try by hosting a FastAPI application. Render seems to directly support python frameworks like Flask, Django etc as their documentation mentions them. But we should be able to host FastAPI app as it supports building any python app, we just need to change the starting command. Let's get into it without wasting another minute.
