Anyone else see these types of announcement posts, and it's like they already have thousands of users? Where do y'all learn about these projects so early?

- bluetidepro 2y agoTo what "yasoob" said, you probably just missed it in past HN posts: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=adonisjs https://hn.algolia.com/?q=adonisjs - It's been talked about for 4+ years now.
- yasoob 2y agoSo a few reasons come to mind. Firstly, these projects usually do more than one HN posts. And by the time they have thousands of users, they have already done quite a few HN posts by then. Additionally, if you follow a particular scene (JS in this case) then you can hear about these projects quite a lot on tech Twitter. Adonis was being actively discussed a few days ago after Theo posted a video about why there is no Rails alternative in JS-land. I personally remember hearing about Adonis when I searched for a Rails alternative in JS a long time ago. And lastly, this project specifically has been in the making for a good number of years now. So it makes sense that there are quite a few people out there using it.
- NayamAmarshe 2y agoThis is getting popular due to the recent 'Laravel vs JS Frameworks' controversy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaodD79Q4iE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaodD79Q4iE
- amanvirk 2y agoHell yes. Maintaining this framework for 10years and only recently we have started getting attention because of all this Laravel vs JS drama!
