RedwoodJS https://github.com/redwoodjs/redwood

I launched my startup from 0 to first customer in 3 months thanks to this guy. Most of my time saved was because of a solid collection of libraries, brilliantly integrated together (backend to frontend), and I didn't have to suffer analysis paralysis every time I needed something.

I've just been researching this the last few days. There's a couple of other similar tools that I'm also checking out:

Refine.dev

Wasp-lang.dev

I'm quite early into researching these so I don't have anything much to say about them yet.

Wasp is a DSL so it's a bit different.

Wasp DSL creator here, let me know if any questions :)

Very interesting project, It's interesting to see trends coming back to bundled BE/FE. What would you say are the biggest issues you have with Redwood?

My issues are kind of specific to the idiosyncrasies of my app. Its multi-tenant and two-sided (admins and applicants), so I had to kind of roll my own auth system on top of the existing one. The fact that I could do that really means that it’s flexible enough honestly.

Another issue is that it doesn’t expose a server.js file, so its hard to do stuff like integrate an APM.

Seems like a replacement for MeteorJS.
