The whole frontend ecosystem is too complex. I feel like I'm entering my DHH phase, I want to rip it all up and just serve some HTML with styling and a tiny bit of JS

If you’re a PHP dev who loves Laravel and want to give another language a go and use a similar style framework then make sure to check out @adonisframework . It has its own ORM, Auth support, and even a CLI tool called Ace which is very similar to Artisan. #Laravel #NodeJS

Tim is proof as to why you shouldn’t quit I started work on a similar product called Sotent about 3 years ago. I ditched it and quit (whether that was the right or wrong decision I’ll never know) Also, below is a comment Tim left on a post about Sotent on Indie Hackers
