Wow this is very cool, thanks for open sourcing it. I’ve been experimenting with different frontend/backend architectures for a couple of months now leveraging React and lately have been using Next.js to do SSR talking to Phoenix backend using Apollo/Absinthe. It all works (generally) but adds a heavy fast-moving dependency and some degree of complexity.
It might be cleaner/simpler to use this library instead. Two questions:
- I realize it’s very new and I was only able to find one example app on GH using it (GitHub - Harleymckee/reactin · GitHub). Are you using it in dev/prod on some closed-source apps already or is it experimental?
- I think it uses a GenServer to control a single spawned long-running node instance that does all the rendering. Have you done load testing on it? I think (not sure) each render request blocks all other render requests and not sure what happens if node crashes for a given request. Maybe using poolboy (or something) could make it more performant/resilient… have you considered?
Thanks again!
