Still alive :)

Just a quick note since it's been 10 days since I last updated you all on what's happening here in DDLand.

So, I've discovered some big challenges in the NextJS platform for DearDiary.Net. Things that make scaling it quite difficult, and other things such as the pencil not updating when you login or logout are just bugs that I can't get around and have been listed on NextAuth for ages and crickets.

So I am forced to look into using a different framework. I'm favouring Remix at the moment. It'll still be JavaScript and I'll be able to re-use a lot of the code, but Remix works in a fundamentally different way to NextJS so there is some work to be done.

So it looks like development has stalled at the moment, but I promise you it hasn't.

First impressions of Remix are that it'll do our themes a lot better too, as well as handling updates much better. Fingers crossed eh?

Well, I'm glad you know what you are doing and can choose the format for doing it the most sustainable way. What's nice is that the basic functionality seems to be working smoothly. I'm still looking for the perfect background image and am looking forward to tweaking the entry box to coordinate with the background image and all that fun stuff. But having a robust operating system is the most important. 💗
I agree
