Yeah, it's great that they try out new things, but really if you are building something on a larger scale you better not use something that didn't have the test of time yet. Being an early adopter can give a good feeling, but in this industry many times you might end up with your tail between your legs. Let others find out the blockers for a brand new framework/package/service, and if the hype still doesn't die down after 3 or 4 years you can pretty safely pick it up. Also there's this bias about new technologies - for one technology that stood the test of time ten has been buried in the graveyard. We might not hear about these technologies, only about the success of the single one and assume that everything that is hyped will be a massive success and is ready to be used.

The edge thing will only work for companies like Cloudflare and Fastly that owns their own infrastructure and can offer a much cheaper pricing by compacting the edge v8 runtimes and get CPU-time pricing instead of runtime pricing.

Indeed, web technology has never been easier, and it's intrinsically Client/Server based, meaning it works on the edge by default. Theo seems to constantly bash client rendering as if it's a bad thing. Speed is not a good reason for SSR, the only thing I would say it potentially gains is SEO. But saying that any sites I've done client side SPA seem to index fine on all major search engines, so not even sure SEO is a good reason. ps. Also even that 200-300ms delay can be reduced if it's just for First Contentful Paint (FCP) reasons, just bootstrap the HTML with some inline styled content, very similar to how mobile apps have a splash screen.

edging to this rn

I think I'm going to just stick with doing things the "old fashioned" way. Vite to build my frontend, deployed on CDN for quick loading to users browsers. Keep it a SPA, and stream in data over websockets so we get first bytes quickly, and extra data gets cached into localstorage. Can make this super snappy and also support offline usage (happens more often than people realize, spotty cell coverage, airplanes, etc). The recent allergic reaction to running JS on client computers is crazy to me. Sure, we can massively reduce the bloat (Vite with Svelte or similar can solve that largely), but just because some folks ship too much JS doesn't mean we have to go crazy and compute everything on the server-side like it's 1999 and we are still writing PHP. It seems too convenient to me that all these companies are pushing us to move compute back to servers, when that means paying them more per month! Conflict of interest. So I don't trust anything Vercel says, or any of these other companies that are doing similar (Deno Deploy, etc).

@victor95pc

Code split + CDN, it would get super snappy app, this idea of rendering SSR looks to me like a regretion, I came from Rails and the main point for me to learn React was to reduce the computing load from the server to the client, its crazy to me to ask to go back to SSR, especially now that client devices are faster, why would anyone compute rendering stuff in the server lol, also you lose the offline support.

with partial pre rendering, can you revalidate (ISR) the data for the static parts of the page that lives on the edge?

Called it from the outset. All of the edge stuff is a cancerous outgrowth of the microservices hype era. The fastest experience for users will always be a properly configured and optimized majestic monolith (or regionalized set) with all resources necessary to compute a response in one place, and a CDN to serve pre-rendered sections and their static assets. The fact that anyone thought it was a good idea to spin up an entire virtual machine and init relevant JS libraries to serve a request (aka cold start) is beyond me. People forget that the V8 engine powering node may start slower, but that's only because it optimizes code more (and better) which makes it more performant over time (and use less memory!) than JSC and other Edge runtimes.

Haha classic, if you use Vercel (and therefore NextJS) for an app that needs to live for several years, if you want to maintain and keep it current, you will have to rewrite it 10x over (at least) to accommodate all their endless experiments and paradigm shifts which have no real benefit to your business and all aimed to lock you deeper into their ecosystem.
