Astro 2.0 - Hackdot

Re:Astro 2.0 by kkarimi on Tuesday January 24, 2023 @01:35PM (#34507911)

We switched to Astro a few months ago. Some team members were not super convinced since NextJs is better known but during our spike to test them both out Astro came on top on ease of use. We have now been in production for a couple of months and could not be happier. It’s very straight forward for simple sites but we switched a couple of legacy react apps to SSR with it and it was super easy and developer experience is great and speed of rendering could not be better. Looking forward to switching our marketing site next with the help of this new collection API in v2

Did you start by rendering all of the react app as a fat island?

Yeah we moved in 3 react apps in to the repo and each one is an island essentially

Astro is freaking amazing. One thing it's made me realize is that most apps don't need global state, and it's one of the reasons Astro has so much good stuff right out of the box.
