I did not have fun debugging this stack and switched to the more comfortable mental model for me. I found a reliance on having to use --inspect for the backend w/ devtools. While a convenience, not a flow I am used to.
I think it's neat but just slowed me down
I'm sure I'd have had more fun doing something hobby-adjacent with it, but I was using it for a client. oops
I don't really understand what's the main benefit of using something like this. It seems to do a lot of "magic" behind the scenes, which in the long-term makes it always hard to implement or debug specific edge-cases.
I think Deno Inc is possibly in trouble due to lack of adoption. I'm in the Deno Discord and it's rather quiet, with not much of an uptick in user activity from the vaunted 2.0 launch.
This web framework by Deno was discussed [0] in 2022 when it was announced. The landing page gives indeed a fresh perspective. At the time people saw this as possible NextJS competitor, yet I haven't heard much about Fresh. I wonder about experiences with this framework.
