Hi Satya would be interesting to learn more about why you think this technology is irrelevant. I think you are partially right, and the parts you might be right about might have been irrelevant for many for a very long time.
I havenāt used Publications for at least 8 years. I adopted React from its first releases and found Redux to work best with what I need to do.
I donāt use Cordova or Meteor Desktop, and I am pretty fine with React Native or PWA (being a React dev. anyway).
Now my AI tools are pretty fine with understanding my Meteor specifics, and it helps me a lot.
I started a couple of DB-less websites in React to have them hosted with Netlify, and I found myself doing them in Meteor too :)) ā¦ because it is fun and joy.
If I could get CDN cached dynamic components, I would be the happiest developer (in my house).
I also need to get into passing Methods (DB queries) through Redis, I found the solution, and I just need to allocate some time for wiring things right. This is similar to redis-oplog but for methods.
I recently tried NextJS (again). I just canāt stand the fetching syntax and concept and I hate the way images are being imported and some other parts that had to be made a NextJS React component. I am also not a big supporter of SSR because I consider that the cost of tech should be shared between the provider and consumer - Iāll give you some JS ā¦ you HTML it yourself. Of course this works ok up to a certain bundle size but works better for apps with recurrent visits such as SaaS or social networks etc. SSR is great for the first visit but I couldnāt find another use for it in what I do. I host my own Prerender so I will only pay $5 a month to have all the buggers out there crawl my pages.
