I'm not much of a fan of livewire, although I've just played with it. I prefer Unpoly, which I already know. Or inertia if I have to go full Js.

I never used Rails other than doing it's tutorial, etc. And I only know hotwire by their docs, so I can't do a real life / production code comparison. But from my understanding, Unpoly manages to achieve almost the same thing

Try Unpoly. It's the opinionated, batteries included alternative to htmx. But still in the same spirit.

I'm working on a project with Laravel + Unpoly. It's an extremely easy and straight forward stack. And I knew zero PHP when I started, but I don't find it difficult at all.

I've been using node/react for a lots of years. This year I started working on a project built with Laravel. I can confirm it is a GREAT framework. Suddenly everything is reasonably easy again.

After like 8 years working with node/react, this year I got into this exact stack.. and OMG... feels like cheating. I had forgotten life could be easier.

I used to think like this, but nowadays I think that's no a real problem, at eñadt to me. I find it very easy to go across different JavaScript projects with different libraries, etc. Usually the worst part is understanding the busines

Meanwhile I'm having a ton of fun (and better metrics) by just rendering html from the server and using Unpoly for interactivity and "old style ajax" dynamic updates. And still building the entire application in JavaScript, e

The closest thing I can think of to what you're asking for is https://tallstack.dev/ . You have everything you might need there and you will have to take zero decisions tech stack related. There are also those "no

I kind of disagree on the last one, or at least there is a huge step from the second one to it. I've used next.js for a project which I think qualifies as the new hotness. Once I had to add translations, authentication and do some auth

LOL Nextjs is to a backend framework what a fly is to an airplane.

by likortera 4y ago
For me the quickest and most robust way to build anything web related, as a single dev or as a small team is Laravel + Unpoly + tailwind. That's a real full stack: from authentication, translations, background jobs, componetized views,

Well said. This matches my experience 100%. A pretty well known ticketing company bought our startup a few years ago, and after the first week of parties, raising salaries and hyping us the reality struck us very hard. It was impossible to

You are confusing Gitlab with GitHub?

I consider myself just a "Web Developer". That's it. Do you need frontend? I can do it. Do you need backend? I can do it. Do you need a deployment script or a CI pipeline? I can do it. I'm in my 40s and I've been do

Yes, those are frontend developers, we all agree with that. Should every frontend developer be reinventing date pickers from scratch just to demonstrate how good they are? I don't think so. That's why I said 99%. Maybe there'

In my opinion, people are destroying the country, not just politicians (they're people too, after all) because they would do the same the politicians do if they have the chance, for the same reasons you have (if I don't do it, I&#

Of you are not using libraries, the smallest of the projects will become a large scale project. I prefer having to keep up to date with libraries than having to deal with tons of some "smart ass" reinvention of the wheel that does

by likortera 4y ago
Then you use an existing datepicker library, and customize it. Writing your own datepicker is 99% of the times a rookie mistake.

by likortera 4y ago
I agree with everything you said. The system forbids doings things right. And I don't see any way out of it. The only realistic solution is to leave the country, which is what most that have the opportunity end up doing.

by likortera 4y ago
Yes, but it is a feedback loop into destruction. People don't pay taxes because of this, so the government increases taxes to collect more, so people pay less, so they need more. There is no way out of it.

Exactly. This is what I wanted to explain. You did it better. Thanks.

I'm not an economist. But I'm pretty sure a culture of stealing each other and not paying taxes is somehow related.

by likortera 4y ago
I lived for 20 years there. In my opinion the root of all problems there is that it is embedded in the culture to be as egoist as possible and to steal as much as you can from everyone else in the most ruthless and shameless possible way. P
