NextJs cache has worked well that wasn't what I saying. My problem is that its too aggressive. I feel it should be something you opt in for rather than it being the default state. I had a terrible experience. To opt out you have to individually opt out for the many cache from full route cache to data cache and memoization which are sever caches and also in memory router cache on the client. There was an article I read from one of the guys working on remix on why he doesn't use nextjs and he pointed out this pit fall too. Their new unstable_noStore function trys to fix this and I believe template files too. Haven't use next 14 to confirm if it works but its very much needed.

For qwik yes that milliseconds delay was too obvious and even more than a milliseconds self way back. But if they have improved on it to make it largely unnoticeable that will be good.
I prefer the opt-out approach because more often than not, I need the cache for optimisations.

You can change the default behaviour in your vercel.json file.

Below is a picture of a reset I did when I had troubles with caching because I didn't understand it.

Astro is also good too. You can get good lighthouse score easily but their routing is a major problem. I really like the idea of their islands giving you the ability to use any js framework from react, vue, solidjs and the likes. But I sha couldn't deal with their use of a tag for routing. Not sure if they have fixed this though.

Next aggressive caching is one of the reasons I abandon it. They are now trying to fix it with their noStore function which is good. Their hot reload is not the best either, takes forever to load pages as the app gets bigger. They did promise their next turbo will fix these issues when ready, hopefully they do. There was this epic post I read on this hot reload issue on github. The guy was so blunt and asked some good questions. I will try to find it and send here, he literally spoke my mind and more.

Is Qwik any good? Granted last time I used it was before they got to version 1 but it was very slow to become interactive. I tried it out for a documentation I was writing, I remember once the page loads you will have to click the nav links more than once for it to respond. On Dev it works fine but in Prod na cast. I just jejely comot eye haven't gone back since.
NextJs caching works well now. No issue again.

Qwik is stable now. Resumabilty over hydration.

The only downside of qwik is when you click a button or link just immediately after the site loads, it may not respond immediately, just a few milliseconds delay.

Exactly my point not all project needs all those css reset. So its not specific and gives you unnecessary code.

A clean written css is not almost impossible to achieve. Its very much doable. You just need the right convention and more importantly experience writing vanilla. One thing is to learn css the other is to learn to write it effectively which is doable not impossible at all.

I don't conform to this or that is a must. I remember working for a company last year and one of the devs never wrote tailwind once all his classes were beautifully crafted and named that I even had to start using them under certain conditions instead of tailwind classes. Because they were quite frankly so much more efficient. The only downside was the lack of intellisence.

Theres no one size fit all, yes tailwind is easier as it handles all the hassle for you but it doesn't mean its a must. Infact I rather a newbie go through the pain of writing vanilla and learning how to write it effectively than just jumping to tailwind. That's how I learned personally as it makes you very versatile.

That said I will always recommend tailwind for large teams to avoid problems. If not possible ensure your team has a working naming convention, and always have core reusable classes they save you alot of time.

All your points are correct.

Although Next JS fast die, it’s good for big projects with big bucks..

Don’t use Next JS, if you want be hosting on Vercel and also building an SSR application.

At times, it kinda seem like you are just trolling.

You can use Nextjs to create static sites.

For only hosting on Vercel, it is only a matter of time before other platforms such as Amazon Amplify and Netlify will be able to run Nextjs 13 and 14.

Sorry Next JS….


When you want to use hooks, create a client component and use it there. You can pass it into the server component or pass the server component as a child into the client component. It depends in what you want to achieve.

Once you understand Next 13/14, you will never use 12 again.

I was about leaving NextJs until 13 came out and threw me off my feet.

Before I go tailwind would have been the best JS frame work to me, but then too carry their own gbese.. The devs always make senseless updates and above all tailwind is a predatory software owned by vercel…

U can’t use hooks if you want to use SSR..

React without hooks, get as e be..

Nesting routes with page.js no too make sense to me.. It’s just a big confusing and time waster..

@XXLDICK, I am waiting for your reply..

To the best of may knowledge tailwind is written inside the HTML tags, any other funny invention of writing tailwind is a waste of time..


As long as I will write tailwind inside HTML tags, I reject it, cos it will waste my time and be hard to maintain..

It better to separate all in different files @ JS, HTML, CSS, then ….. U know what to do.

Secondly writting CSS that way is slower, although nether difference can’t be spotted on smaller projects..

I no sabi everything, I stand to be corrected..

Tailwind CSS is not written inside HTML. You only write the class names there.

Tailwind compiles everything to a CSS file. It is not inline styles.

Writing CSS the tailwind way is way faster than Vanilla CSS. You only write class names, while Tailwind helps you write the CSS.

You type will say next JS and their infamous SsR is the best thing ever.

What is better than NextJs aside from Qwik?
Is there any framework that makes caching easier?
Yes, SSR improves SEO. Is there any framework that can easily get close to 100% lighthouse score compared to NextJs aside from Qwik?

NextJs may have it's disadvantages like vendor lock-in, but their SSR is the best I have seen. Only Remix comes close.

Tail winds is for very small projects..

Tail wind is also slower.





How can you call Tailwind an inline CSS?

Not necessarily. It depends on how you write your css. Tailwind by default gives you a couple of boilerplate css code together with what ever classes you used so it adds more code that you probably won't even need in your project.

Try it yourself don't take my word for it creates a simple form with one input and one button style it with vanilla and again with tailwind. Compare the size of the vanilla with that generated by tailwind. Tailwind version will always be bigger if you wrote your vanilla css following best practices.

A clean written vanilla css code will always be more lightweight than tailwind because its more specific as opposed to tailwind which tty to reset everything to cover all possibilities. Obviously you control this to a certain level with postcss but that is besides the point.
The boiler plate code it ships with is for CSS reset.

I am aware vanilla CSS will be more lightweight for a site that is too small. That's why I said Tailwind will be more lightweight most of the time, not all the time.

A clean written CSS will be just exactly as Tailwind does it (atomic) and that is almost impossible to achieve without a framework like Tailwind.

Tailwind should be a must for everyone. Everyone who understands Tailwind can easily modify styles without even inspecting the classes.

No framework or library that can be as lightweight as the core technology
You are wrong.

You will get a more lightweight CSS using Tailwind instead of vanilla CSS almost every time.

Tailwind is atomic. And no repeating yourself(DRY).

Unbiased1:


Don't blame me jare. I have gotten so good with CSS, I just feel I don't need to use any styling framework. The main reason why I use styled components package is because it allows me to write my CSS in the same file with JSX (in react and Next JS) so I don't have to deal with creating and organising a separate CSS file. Also when compiling, styled components add the necessary -webkit styles for better compactibility with browsers similar to the way SCSS does it.
Styled components in 2023?

You don't even know the reason for Tailwind CSS. It has nothing to do with whether you are good at vanilla CSS or not.

Tailwind is Atomic, easily maintainable... I see no reason Vanilla CSS should be used over Tailwind. Tailwind should be a standard sef.

Mr No-suggestion-is-welcome, I am not preaching reinventing the wheel. For simple things, copy and paste codes instead of installing a library.

I always use react-hook-form for client side React forms, and I always use Zod for form validations... I am not against using libraries.

I know say you follow for the millions of people that use the is-odd library. undecided A library that returns true is a number is an odd number shocked and it has millions of downloads.

Easily with a library. sad

Just add an event listener - ondragover - and create the handling function. That simple.

Adding a library is an overhead that adds unnecessary kilobytes.

To accept only images and videos, just add accept="video/*, image/*" in the input tag.


I only use libraries when the tradeoff is worth it.

Alba3:
Agberos in the East are the worse of the worst. The main reason Igbos are shouting about those in Lagos is because they see them as threat to their occupational ambitions in Lagos. Since Most Yorubas are forming wokes and don't really care about their heritage or any legacy for unborn generations again. Nothing like self preservation, many Yoruba youths are lost and unfortunately Yorubas don't give birth to many children again but want to be too liberal in the midst of devilish hypocritic and unliberal tribes.

There was a day I alighted from Enugu bus at Onitsha south bus park with my luggage, agberos demanded I must pay charges before a wheelbarrow guy could carry my stuff. I paid twice, on our way to Peace park another sets blocked this guy for about two other tickets which I had to pay. The wheelbarrow guy said if he passes there hundred times, the owner of the load must pay these different sets of touts. The funny thing was that you would never see easterners complaining about these but in Lagos they're forming Americans.

This is 100% true. I have firsthand experience.

When we gathered in protest, Tinubu, who doesn't care about the masses thought it was because of him...to threaten his utopian political ambition. He now asked sanwoolu
