   One thing I just realise is OP can replace > HAProxy > NGINX > SSLMate with Caddy [0] which would reduce the number of dependencies and complexity involve in infra. I've been using Caddy for a very long time now and it has bee

   I'm someone who likes configuring & running my own servers, it is always a pleasure reading how others small / solo businesses are running their show. It is so cool to see one-person SaaS business running on old school bare me

   Aside from Rails 7 release, what I'm more excited about is the new homepage which also got updated with this release. For the longest time, I felt the Rails homepage did not do proper justice in explaining the true potential of the fra

    Caddy is a great piece of software. We, at hatchbox.io, have to moved to Caddy (in v2) for all our applications and honestly the experience so far has been great. It’s a bliss not to deal with SSL certificate generation for our customers’ a

    For the longest time I have used capistrano to deploy my projects on VPS from Cloud providers. It served me well but wasn't as convenient. At the start of this year I joined hands with Chris on https://hatchbox.io to work o

    Caddy switched their license way back in 2019 making it completely open source and free to use https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/2786

    Bilal here, I’m working with Chris on v2. Caddy providers benefits compared to Nginx, like - Out of the box SSL certificates - REST api for providing configuration - A vibrant plugin ecosystem to extend traditional web server functionality

    There is Hanami ( https://hanamirb.org/ ) web framework which could try if Rails bothers you.

    What Crystal framework are you using? Coming from Ruby I gave serious try to Crystal a few months back but couldn't move forward because of the current state of Crystal ecosystem. I do hope it improves.

    Thanks for sharing these insight & very impressive stats! Just few questions I have: - What is your total infra cost? A cost split between storage & servers would be an awesome insight - Since how long you have been running this ser

    I have been enjoying building apps with https://hotwire.dev (server-side rendered with JS sprinkled on top) after using React/Vue heavily in the past. I'm amazed at how simpler & productive it has become to build a

    I worked on Visual FoxPro 6 and then on Visual FoxPro 9 at my first part-time job while I was in college (2006-07). It was a pleasure to work with. My boss at time had a strong expertise in FoxPro for windows and FoxPro for DOS. Honestly, V

    I tried Crystal at the start of this year for an experiment and found the language is still in its infancy stage. Thou there are good things happening in their community but still a long road towards becoming a serious contender for switchi

    I agree on this. But, you could add a few gems to Rails and it comes at par with Laravel.

    I have been using Ruby on Rails with Vue.js + Inertia.js and honestly my productivity has skyrocketed. I don't worry about writing APIs for the frontend, no need to maintain separate router on frontend and no state management required.

    This looks like a great library on the surface. I would very much like to have a simpler alternative to Sidekiq for projects which doesn't require that level of complexity. Also, not having to add Redis just to run background processin

    I made https://markr.app to highlight & capture content which come across interesting to me when surfing on the web. I like to organise all the interesting pointers at one place and refer them in future when I want to.

    I think comments saying "Apple is doing this to provide a better experience" completely misses the point. If I'm creating an app (like a business) I should be incharge of deciding when I would like to charge my customers beca

    I don't think you would need to know ins and outs of Turbolinks to leverage it in your app. It's a simple drop-in library which replaces `body` inner HTML instead of a full refresh in case of page navigation. Its actual aim is to
