Ask HN: Building with Rails-API and Next.js

Posted by luizsantana on Monday August 05, 2024 @11:26AM
from the ask-hn dept.

In order to deal with my productivity I decided to build my own email client with Rails-API and next.js front-end.

All in all, the experience was very nice. The product is live and it is pretty useful.

But to migrate from Rail-API to use hotwire, is this an option? Seems pretty hard. Not to mention away moving from Next.js.

Did anyone went through that? Any good strategies for that?

A lateral move, maybe, but have you taken a good look at Sveltekit?

Specifically, Sveltekit + drizzle-orm + zod + SuperForms. It works pretty well, IMO.

Still, nothing comes close to the out-of-the-box functionality which Rails offers.
