> I guess this is targeting the vuejs crowd Typescript support and usage with Vue is very large. Vue itself is written in TS and most large libs are also written in TS. According to /r/vuejs and my personal experience also most

React is the most used frontend framework, but not a good reference as React is outdated, slow and big. Take Solid, Svelte or Vue (with or without Vapor mode) as reference and the picture looks different. Additionally when using custom comp

iPhones are less of a privacy nightmare. One of the biggest incentives for creating apps is to scrape all kind of data from the users. Look at how many apps require permission to see you contacts. And how many actually need your contacts

You are overestimating the voices / anecdotes / evangelists from the internet. I did this as well ... so no offense. When reading HN or Reddit one can easily get the impression that Java, C++ and C# are dead and the world has turn

I don't believe this. It's illegal in many countries. No way a large German (after Dieselgate they all are very cautious) company like Bosch would make such a stupid move. If they did they'd face countless lawsuits and a ban

Agile methods are often applied wrong and then are a disservice. There is no one-size-fits-all method to manage people and teams. Leadership naturally buys into those method as they are promised an easier life, but there is no shortcut to m

The many false claims around those isomorphic frameworks (SSR and CSR after hydration) drive me crazy. But why should marketing fail at smart people? "Drink this soda pop and see, you have pretty friends and look how happy you are!&quo

> I think the end game is doing SSR of web content inside the RDBMS (e.g., Oracle APEX) At my workplace our IT department uses APEX a lot for all kind of internal LOB apps. It works great as long as it supports what you need.

It's not about learning (anymore). It's about consuming content. People spending (wasting) their time on X and YT are not there to learn something but to get their social media (dopamine) fix. I hate YT, X, Insta. Don't even

Yes, vibe coding is part of the great LLM marketing campaign. I'm old enough to be skeptical of things that are overhyped. That doesn't mean it's a fad or generally bad. It's a great way to implement ideas and then valid

After reading the long Github thread, I think you're right. It's probably just as simple as "what is the easiest way to copy our TS code 1:1 to a faster language". And this case Go wins due to its simplicity.

Thanks for the link. I'm not fully convinced by Anders answer. C# has records, first class functions, structs, span. Much control and I'd say more than Go. I'd even say C# is much closer to TS than Go is. You can use records

Good move from Volkswagen. But Mazda gets my credit for being the first to reverse this trend. Hopefully others will follow. We now need stricter regulations to what extend car makers can embrace the "Software Defined Vehicle" vis

I've used C# years ago, then some Go for simple web services and CLIs and now I'm back at C# for those applications. You're missing out nothing if you're already familiar with C#. Go's biggest advantage is that it&#

Not using React anymore, but it's generally not an easy decision whether to use a framework for a SPA or not. Currently I'm torn between Nuxt and Vue with Vue Router. Nuxt has many fun QoL features, but adds a significant layer of

I used C# on .NET framework (the old .NET running only on Windows) 10 years ago at work. Then I had to use it 2 years ago again, and man, did it change! ASP.NET Minimal API is absolutely awesome, as the Generic Host integrating config, log

I don't understand why it's a good idea to couple tooling or configuration or infrastructure (e.g. Aspire.NET, which I'm also not convinced of being a good idea) so tightly with the application. An application should not need

Extremely interesting topic, unfortunately shallow article. Still I'm happy for the input. I'd like to learn more about how abundance of food, lack of threats and other comforts of civilization distort the formerly vital instincts

I'm not convinced by .NET Aspire. It solves a small problem (service discovery and orchestration for local development of multi service projects). But it solves this by making service discovery and orchestration an application level co

I was looking for a mature, complete and powerful statically typed stack as well. ASP.NET was my clear answer (not Go or Rust). There's a lot of noise coming from Microsoft to sell their new products (this year: Aspire.NET). But don&#x

I've noticed that too. I think it depends on the topic. Many are biased when it comes to Apple (me too). Some even defend their misbehaving. My emotional reaction to Apple misbehaving is usually anger because I somehow feel disappointe

I find it more powerful and from a certain point easier to create the tooling using the projects programming language. Every dev should be familiar with that language and ecosystem. E.g. for project that had several tools - Rust (server), .

> If you need to do CSR, use Solid or Vue, but don't do React. Easier said than done. There're still many high quality libs for React that are not available for vanilla JS or other frameworks. E.g. https://reactflow.

Not to forget Entity Framework Core. It has become one of the best (if not the best) ORM over the years. Bit of a learning curve, but for CRUD ideal.

Only parts of modern web dev are unnecessarily complex. What you can do with frameworks like SvelteKit or Nuxt, SolidStart, Remix, Next, ... is amazing. For simpler use-cases you sure can and should use vanilla HTML, CSS and some JS maybe

Very well done. And very impressive for a side(!) project, or what started as a side project.
