INSIGHT

Future of JavaScript Frameworks

  • The JavaScript framework landscape will likely remain stable, with React, SvelteKit, Solid, and Astro gaining popularity.
  • React's server components might prompt developers to explore alternatives like Solid, while web components will play a larger role.
ADVICE

Using Caddy for Local Development

  • Use Caddy for local development to simplify URL management and avoid port-related issues.
  • Set up a local development URL (e.g., app.localhost) to proxy your application and manage multiple servers through one domain.
ADVICE

  • Proxy third-party API requests through your backend server for security, caching, and data control.
  • Direct requests are acceptable when rate limiting is per IP, maximizing requests for individual users.
