What would the typical HN startup gain from this over using just Django?
Is there anything on the Demo page (https://boilerplate.saasitive.com/ https://boilerplate.saasitive.com/) that would be different?
In my experience as a user, everything that uses React is always an annoyance in one way or another. But I am happy to understand if there are legit use cases.
- arvindamirtaa 6y agoIt's a good learning tool, and if you want to use React for some specific reason this may be a good starting point. But not otherwise. Otherwise django + react makes sense when there're different people (or teams) handling the frontend and the backend.
- pplonski86 6y agoYes, this boilerplate has two main goals: (1) it is a good starting point for developing the more advanced applications (2) it is provided for learning purposes, there are step-by-step instructions how the boilerplate was created. BTW, it is still under the development. The boilerplate code runs with docker-compose on single server but in the future the frontend and backend can be easily divided, so separate teams can work on them.
- ulisesrmzroche 6y agoIt’s really difficult to keep your data in sync with the backend, especially at scale. They also fit in well in a micro service architecture, which solves a lot of comms and maintenance problems at scale. The typical hn startup is expected to grow to that size, to an enterprise scale, so you’re not going to see a lot of people use Django. Can you list one annoyance you see as a user with React?
