Frontend

use server directive is an antipattern and we should properly declare and use API endpoints.

Change my mind

Developer 🤓 build, develop and operate Farcaster solutions @ dtech.vision also love tech, decentralization, fitness and oldschool rap 😎

imho only if you intend other applications to build on the api, otherwise this is just faster dev

real apis are hard

-X-X- flick.ing

while not usually a fan of tech magic myself, react server components have been a great tool for me to make faster webpages.

the generated API is straight forward to reason with, it's just the component props, serialized as the input. the return is not intended for re-use, like an ajax model.

replace other people with other apps and we good.

if anyone in your code that isn't fully versed looks at it it will be confusing.

server actions under the hood build a "API" and the step from server action to have it be a proper route setup isn't much of a lift especially in the day and age of AI copilots doing the scaffolding for you.

The benefit it gives you though is a clear labeling of where what is running while lookign at the code
