    • Project mention: Ask HN: Best OSS SQL Query Builder in Any Language | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-08

    https://prisma.io is popular as I understand it. I've been trying out https://strapi.io the last week and am thoroughly impressed.

    They both do much more than build queries. One big thing both do is automate database migration calculations. Strapi goes further and gives you a CMS and admin UI on top, as well as doing a lot more of the complex query building from a json object. Both still require a fundamental understanding of the data model and SQL

    • Project mention: Ask HN: Does Anyone Use a "Closed Core" Software Model? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-16

    > "Are there examples of companies adopting this model?"

    Many examples across the industry:

    - Autodesk AutoCAD (closed) + Plugins/Addons (many open)

    - MS Windows (closed) + Many 3rd party programs (open)

    - Github (closed) + Github Actions (open)

    - Npm (closed) + Npm modules (mostly open)

    > "What are the potential benefits or pitfalls?"

    Benefits:

    - Harder to replicate, the company gets to keep the "secret sauce" a secret

    - Opening up a way to "extend" the platform means 3rd party developers add value to your system

    - The core isn't open, so less effort is required to maintain compare to OpenSource

    Pitfalls:

    - Closed-source is hard to verify, company is essentially saying "trust me bro"

    - Less innovation, as user's can't contribute to the core

    > "How does it impact community engagement and software adoption?"

    There's hardcore FOSS advocates that will hate anything not fully open. But a business has to make money and protect it's IP, having a "closed core" is one way to do that and ensure a sustainable business model.

    Another approach is the opposite, open-core + closed-premium-addons. An example of this is "React Admin"

    - Premium Modules Offering -> https://react-admin-ee.marmelab.com/

    • Project mention: Ask HN: How Can I Make My Front End React to Database Changes in Real-Time? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-17

    I'm interested in this problem also!

    I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences.

    AFAIK this problem can be solved by:

    1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take!

    • Project mention: Things I wish I knew before moving 50K lines of code to React Server Components | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-01

    Actually, it's worse than that. Next has started throwing errors if it statically detects you even _importing_ hooks inside of a React Server Component environment:

    - https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/10974

    - https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/11167

    To the point that Lenz Weber( a maintainer of Apollo Client, and my co-maintainer on Redux Toolkit), is considering resorting to a package that wraps and re-exports all of React's public API just to avoid that static analysis:

  • payload

    The best way to build a modern backend + admin UI. No black magic, all TypeScript, and fully open-source, Payload is both an app framework and a headless CMS.

  • redwood

    The App Framework for Startups

    • Project mention: Release Radar • February 2024 Edition | dev.to | 2024-02-29

    Frameworks are a theme with this month's Release Radar, so here's another. Redwood is a full-stack, JavaScript/TypeScript web application, designed to scale with you. It uses React frontend for the frontend and links to a custom GraphQL API for the backend. The latest version includes a bunch of breaking changes such as moving to Node 20.0, the Redwood Studio, and highly requested GraphQL features such as Realtime, Fragments, and Trusted Documents, the server file, new router hooks, and heaps more. If you've previously used Redwood, you'll probably want to upgrade to version 7.0. The team have put together a handy migration guide for you to follow.

  • apollo-server

    🌍  Spec-compliant and production ready JavaScript GraphQL server that lets you develop in a schema-first way. Built for Express, Connect, Hapi, Koa, and more.

    • Project mention: React Server Components Example with Next.js | dev.to | 2024-04-16

    Another interesting point is that executing fetches on the server can allow developers to more easily leverage caching. Next.js already handles caching out-of-the-box and I’m curious to see if the wider adoption of RSC reduces the need to combine React with solutions like Apollo Server and Apollo Client. While there are other benefits to these tools, RSC could provide similar caching behavior without the need to invest in a GraphQL solution.
