wip (got faster!) Next.js mcmaster ships tomorrow + how-to 100% dynamic postgres-backed app w/ login h/t Ethan Niser, Rhys, arman

@nextjs @ethanniser @ksw_arman One of the most interesting Next projects I've worked on, really cool seeing how fast it can go with mostly defaults - excited for people to see what we've built

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman Probably doesn't have the same business logic underneath, that's always the contributing factor. Frontend can always fly fast by default until you introduce the business constraints.

It’s true that the “real world” adds complexity, but we specifically made this a dynamic website (hence callout to Postgres and logged-in support) to show that the architecture is sound. You could have done something “similar” to this demo with Jamstack / Gatsby a few years ago, and then it’d fall off that complexity cliff you’re referring to when adding personalization or millions of products.

@nextjs @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman Can't wait to ship this tomorrow

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan Had a lot of fun building this, never realized how much time Next.js actually saves with out-of-the-box optimizations

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman Beautiful. This is peak marketing

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman love it, need the repo for this badly lol

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman But does it offer Next day delivery?

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman What about the search function 👀👀👀

@nextjs @ethanniser @RhysSullivan @ksw_arman What’s happening at ~00:11 in the video? Oscillation of state somehow?
