I still haven't figured out a good way to due blue/green sqlite deploys on fly.io. Is this just a limitation of using sqlite or using Fly? I've been very happy with sqlite otherwise, rather unsure how to do a cutover to a new instance.
Anyone have some docs on how to cutover gracefully with sqlite on other providers?
I'm personally fine with a little bit of downtime for my particular small app. I'm just surprised there's not a more detailed story around deploying sqlite in a high availability prod environment given it's increased popularity and coverage over the last few years. Especially surprising with Rails' (my stack) going full "sqlite-first".
The "sqlite-first" folks have accepted that a bit of downtime is better than engineering wildly complex systems that avoid it, for non-mission-critical apps (if your mission is a low volume e-commerce shop.. it's not critical)
Old ipads are great until apps start not working with the OS. I have a 2017 and Disney+ just dropped support for my current OS version and I can't update further.
Sorry, I wasn't saying you should split, I wanted to say that depending on what type of apps you are more leaning into one makes a bit more sense than the other. Render with their own CDN is quite good for frontend apps. In comparison, the whole config and auto scalling/provisioning of Railway makes it easier for backend app.
Of course you can do both with both of these services.
> The Backbone code is brutally honest about what it's doing. An event fires, a handler runs, you build some HTML, you put it in the DOM. It's verbose, sure, but there's no mystery. A junior developer can trace exactly what happens and when. The mental model is straightforward: "when this happens, do this."
> The React code hides a lot. And once you move past simple examples, you hit problems that don't make sense until you understand React's internals.
I relate to this a lot. I have had to read these two very large articles multiple times to calcify my mental model for understanding exactly _when_ react does something and _why_ it did or did not.

Backbone was also my first framework that I haven’t touched in over 10 years, but looking at the code examples from the article I completely understood what was going on.
