Description

MVC app using react + fastify + objection orm. Traditional blog with ability to add articles, tags and comments. Also have users and authentification

Features

• Server router
• React views
• SSR. I.e. despite it is not SPA (no client router), the whole page rendered on server and hydrated on client. Which means you can use all power of javascript in "server" views 🔥
• Turbolinks. Feel the smooth transitions between pages, like in SPA 🔥
• Postgres database
• Nginx in front of Node for caching and serving static content
• One button deploy via Docker
• Requirements: Docker, Git. No need to install Postgres, Nginx. In production server you don't even need Node 😊

Cons

• need to do some meta programming for generating client scripts. Not a big problem, but still
