Show HN: Fate, a new data framework for React and tRPC, inspired by Relay
- Reubend 10mo agoThis provides plenty of value conceptually, but I wish they were able to push the syntax into a more intuitive place. My biggest gripe with Relay is how forced the syntax feels, and this seems better but still confusing. Take for example this component declaration: export const PostCard = ({ post: postRef }: { post: ViewRef<'Post'> }) => { ... } That feels terrible to me! I don't have any suggestion from my side, but I feel like there's got to be a less awkward way.
- cpojer 10mo agoYou don't have to rename the variable. You can also do this: ``` export function PostCard(props: { post: ViewRef<'Post'> }) { const post = useView(PostView, props.post); } ``` If you add a few aliases (that can be easily generated), it becomes this: ``` export function PostCard(props: { post: PostViewRef }) { const post = useView(PostView, props.post); } ``` There are many bits in fate worthy of criticism. Naming and typing React props really isn't one of those.
- hombre_fatal 10mo agoAt least complain about something specific to the project and not generic TypeScript syntax.
