Taking a step back, it’s truly insane that it is standard practice to apply this level of complexity to the storage, incrementing, and rendering of a single integer. The number of dependencies involved is surely enormous. Perhaps I am underestimating the complexity of the task at hand, but how is this not like a 2 line flask app or something comparable.
- coffeemaniac 6y agoIt could be done in a 2-line flask app. Josh's blog is about building things using Gatsby and the tooling built around the React ecosystem. So he wrote about how to build it with that. I don't know that I'd call it "standard practice" but it's a programming tradition to demonstrate how to use a set of tools by building something simple with them.
