Frontend

I'm curious about the state of deploying frontends to decentralized systems.

If you wanted to deploy a dapp frontend to talk to some contracts on an EVM chain, what stack + decentralized hosting solution would you reach for?

Lightning fast onchain cloud. Effortlessly build, ship, and scale performant apps. Edge-optimized, low cost, self-sovereign. Use our app - https://fleek.xyz

What front-end framework do you normally go for?

Static site on IPFS. Lightweight client-side rendered front end framework, compile to static site, pin  it on IPFS. I like @fleek as a hosted tool for this.

I mostly wanna support decentralized services.

I don’t know if I agree that only the contracts matter, though. For some dapps, the frontend will play a big role in the usability of the system.

maybe a silly ques but why does the fe being on ipfs matter? only the contracts matter.
