Is understanding Dutch (reading and listening) good enough?

They're not experienced with git, but still use the command-line? Interesting. Or would you think a jj GUI would help them?

how do I do that? :-)

Agreed, but uhtml-ssr looks a bit dated. If you want a html tagged template literal lib with no dependencies, see for example: implementation: https://github.com/mastrojs/mastro/blob/main/src/core&#x

No dependencies. No build step. Just a simple web framework. Implemented in just ~800 lines of TypeScript. https://mastrojs.github.io

This. Cannot believe it too so long for somebody to finally mention progressive enhancement.

> Backend and UI communication goes through in-process channels, not socket-based IPC Are they running the frontend and backend in the same process? Sounds a bit dangerous security-wise?

This. "No loading animations" works if you rely on the browser's loading indicators that all users will be familiar with. @OP, if you're up for a rewrite of the frontend, happy to help you get started with https:/&

right? or give me GitHub issues before the React rewrite – at least they loaded fast...

What AI is doing to the jobs of programmers feels very familiar to a lot of us frontend developers – because it has happened to us before.

Yeah, while you certainly can write semantic HTML with Tailwind, it absolutely doesn't encourage it. It's funny how Tailwind is conceptually going back to inline styles. But sure, if you have <Title>, <Header> and <

Sounds similar to https://nightride.com ?

That's because Apache is basically what today's JS crowd would call a "file-based router", and then the app implements the actual routing in that index.php file. Just like early SPA stored the route in a hash. It's

What's the main motivation for considering Rust? For what it's worth, in my last experience with Bun[0] I ran into a couple of bugs where it seemed Rust could have helped, e.g. using Bun.write [0]: https://mastrojs.gith

Agree that TypeScript is nice, especially for sharing templates and types between server and client. But you can still use TypeScript on the server without sending it all to the client, and without a complex and insecure protocol like RSC.

That was exactly my experience as well, hence I created a "Minimal Astro": https://mastrojs.github.io

Yeah, for that a git-based CMS like Sveltia is really nice. And for people that actually want to learn a bit of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, Mastro JS is as simple a static site generator as I could make it.

if you're not using CSS modules, why would you import the css file into your javascript? But anyway, I think we agree. Feel free to read the linked blog post ;-)

button, .button { /* my button styles */ }

by mb2100 7mo ago
If everything in your code is a React component, I get why you would just want to write the styles right there.[0] Then again, why write `<Button>` if you could just write `<button>` and style it with standard CSS. [0]: https:&

In Unix, everything is a file. In Mastro, everything is an HTTP route. You use the standards-based Request/Response-API not only for writing your server, but also for static site and asset generation. And it's beautiful.

As company size grows, managers want to settle on a "standardized" tech stack that doesn't get in the way when they want to hire and fire people at will. Nobody was ever fired for choosing React (or IBM). But everyone can get

That's a very nice pattern indeed. If you add signals, the update function even gets called automatically. That's basically what we do in [Reactive Mastro]( https://mastrojs.github.io/reactive/ ) ;-)

that very much depends on your definition of "modern web framework".
