  • serverless-chat

  • SSEs come dangerously close to working for serverless, and I completed an entire proof-of-concept chat application in NextJS that was working swimmingly in local development. The only problem: it relied on keeping an array of client objects in memory. One dangerous thing about serverless functions is that this will work some of the time. Because sometimes serverless functions are run on the same computer when they're executed, but that's not a guarantee. Serverless functions are ephemeral by design, so in-memory storage won't scale once deployed.

  • react-hooks

    Discontinued The recommended way to use Ably in React components (by ably-labs)

  • Integrating with Ably was (relatively) painless, though I want to go on record and recommend avoiding their react hooks package, which I found tripped me up more than it helped, especially as it had an outstanding bug at the time of writing that affected me. But the good news is that using Ably's standard client in React isn't that tricky.
