How does this compare to react-boilerplate? I've been using react-boilerplate recently and it's been solid so far.
- geniium 10y agoThis seems to be totally another approach. More like an opinionated setup where you can get a project set up and ready in a few line of codes. Very interesting approach! What are the pros and the cons? Someone that has used both should help us here.
- scottmf 10y agoI've used both and prefer next.js. Granted I'm using GraphQL but I'd prefer it regardless. RBP is actually more opinionated. It's "best* practices to the extreme" at the cost of productivity and lots of boilerplate. It's also a little hostile towards server-side rendering. I enjoyed RBP and learned from it, but we switched to next.js (with styled-components and apollo-client) and things have been far smoother. To be honest I can't really think of a reason to use RBP over Next.js. The creator @mxstbr has tweeted positively about Next.js, has other projects to look after (e.g. styled-components), and hasn't updated it since January, so I'm not sure RBP has much of a future anyway.
