If Deno is looking for more growth they should make it super easy to run Next.js with it

• globalise83 3y ago
  Deno has also created a Next.js competitor, Fresh. I found it a few weeks ago and am starting to go through the docs, looks like a good overall concept. https://fresh.deno.dev/ https://fresh.deno.dev/

    I actually found this worrying, since it means they are not committed to make NextJS work nicely, quite the opposite they now have incentive to not make it happen

      Bartek from the Deno team here - we are actively working on improving experience running NextJS projects in Deno.

      NextJS doesn't have an incentive to run on anything else than Vercel. I wouldn't blame this on Deno.
      • Kinrany 3y ago
        I wonder if Vercel might eventually choose to run on Deno
        • cryptonym 3y ago
          Even if Vercel was built on Deno, I don't see them open sourcing that. Everything that manages distributed cache, edge rendering... They'd probably rather keep that closed and available only for Vercel customers.

      I think you're pointing the wrong finger here. The NextJS team should be working on making NextJS run better with Deno, not the other way around. If the NextJS team doesn't want to do the heavy lifting with that support, thats on them. I think its perfectly reasonable that the Deno folks have an approximate alternative to NextJS. After all, NextJS won't use native Deno idioms for example, it'll always be tied to Vercels' proprietary cloud infrastructure.

    Fresh is quite new imo it's not quite ready for a large project
