You’re not crazy.
I created and maintain VueJS’s other Server Side Rendered library. Express-vue
I’ve spoken on it at a few talks, and every time I do, the eyes of the audience just go blank when I talk about SSR. It’s like I’m talking in some strange language they don’t seem to understand, where the only thing they get is client side everything.
I get the stupidest questions like “so how do I add in <insert unnecessary bloat for a SPA here>” most of these are about state management on the client. Aka redux, or vuex etc. Which I reply. “You don’t need that. State lives on the server. It’s simple”.
Since having this library and it getting as big as it has, having to defend it and defend SSR. I’ve fully burnt out of JavaScript and frontend all together.
We use my library in production at work, and have started talking about migrating to Nuxt. I’m planning on changing teams before that happen.
Javascript is just hype driven development, of the worst kind.
- BigJono 8y agoThanks for all the work you've done on express-vue. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of vue and only really use it at work, it makes me happy to know there's good libraries out there for it that do one thing well (a trait that's sorely lacking in a lot of JS libs).
