This is a nice example of the state of the art of a React & Friends stack. Thank you for building it and sharing it. Is it supposed to be completely functional? Login doesn't seem to work for me, at least. After 1.1 MB transferred, I experience subjectively sluggish page transitions and less-subjective FOUC on a recent MacBook Pro and Chrome over fast wifi. The features in this stack are impressive and appealing, but…

> Not sure why my comment is being downvoted Because of the following reasons: 1) There's the subtle implication in comments like yours that this posting is not worthy because it was posted before. 2) It doesn't matter. Stuff is re-posted all the time, sometimes simultaneously. That's just the way the web works. 3) It's not your job to moderate or research this site for others.
I understand the subtle difference between the two deliveries, but I wouldn't be so dismissive.

Could probably do with some code splitting.
Or maybe I misunderstood what you meant?
[edit] In fact, in the README at the root of the project:
"Next - (Routing, SSR, Hot Module Reloading, Code Splitting, Build tool uses Webpack)"

#105Hey, so, uh... all you need to clone HN is Postgres and some HTML/CSS and a smidgen of JavaScript. Good God, must we pull in the entire JavaScript ecosystem for a simple forum now?
This is why the JS community is so fucked. They take what should be a simple website and needlessly complicate it by (poorly) reimplementing what web browsers can already do.

#106I think this is really nicely done. It's probably a little over-engineered for a project of this size, but it shows the power of using all of these libraries together, and I'm sure it was a great learning experience. Does anyone know what tool was used to generate the system architecture diagram? It's really clean and clear - https://github.com/clintonwoo/hackernews-react-graphql#archi...
"It is intended to be an example or boilerplate to help you structure your projects using production-ready technologies."
He could have used less tech, but then the project wouldn't have served it's purpose.

#107Impressive first load w/ Is this served from a CDN? Great job putting together a robust example application.

#108Question: I see that redux is advertised for state management but I don’t see any calls to dispatch or import statements for redux. Is redux actually used in this project?
I don't think it should be on the list.

re 1) The assumed unworthiness is reading to much into it. Plenty of people point out previous posts. These are both good to read previous comments, and also to assess the spamminess of the post/poster -- how much this is so is up to the readers themselves to decide. I'm glad if someone has done the research for me already.
re 2) Does matter, see previous.
re 3) HN is a public forum, not a workplace.

#110 npm install
added 1226 packages in 52.23s
2) $ ls -l node_modules/ | wc -l
900
3) $ du -h node_modules/
180M node_modules/
4) Few people care what your web app is built with. Your differentiating feature should be how it's used, not how its put together. In this case, it works exactly like the original, just with different internals. I don't see the point.
