@greg @pixel @matthew @stephancill

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

design @splits | /latenightcrew /event-pass /feud

building reel.farm and farcasterstudio.com

It’s personal preference but I go
yes
yes
no
yes
no (should probs be yes)
no

bruh use the app directory what are you doing

what can it do that pages cannot?
or what does it make 2x easier?

server components are much faster than client

faster how? anytime I hear server components I just think it's ISR (which is great but has been around for a while and can be used easily in pages directory!)

i was watching a next.js tutorial today and they started it off without the app router, using pages, and honestly it was pretty straight forward i might even use it

I think app router is more intuitive tbh... you have layout and loading files that are built in, and you can make calls to your DB directly in the component. It's where things are headed so probs good to just learn up now—feels like opting for react class components instead of hooks a few years ago
