Using PlanetScale for db management is like using an iPhone after being accustomed to a Treo. The experience is just better in every way.

> Because I was so preoccupied with whether or not I could that I didn’t stop to think if I should.

A+. A great hack.

If we're using jsonapi, GraphQL, Thrift, or any other protocol that's not HTML, we need to do the following:

- Make the change on the server to support the new functionality. Deploy.

- Make the change on the client to adopt the new functionality. Deploy.

- Remove the old functionality from the server (optional)

Because the client is a separate application, it becomes riskier to deploy those changes together. I need to think about it more as a developer.

With server-authored HTML, this separate client + server deploy is not required.

We're building our company on Rails because we think it's the best choice for a young company, since it allows us to respond to customer feedback more quickly. That's what we're optimizing for right now!

I should have made the distinction between client-side and server-side JS/TS. Familiarity and expertise will be a main driver of productivity for a team, regardless of language/framework. For us, that's RoR.

Client-side JS however has a multiplying property, where we often need to write more server-side code to accommodate the growth in client-side code. If the client-side code is providing undifferentiated value (e.g. authoring HTML), we now have more pieces in our system to accomplish our goal (author HTML). What's been surprising to me is that you don't need to author HTML client-side to have a reactive experience. With Turbo, Stimulus, and server-rendered HTML, a great experience is possible with fewer layers.
