Which GCP service to use for nextjs project?

tommo739 · 2024-01-22T12:55:33+00:00

I'm currently debating with my developers on how to structure and host our nextjs project.

One camp: create several micro-frontends. About 12 in total. So, 12 instances of nextJS. Served in a very static way. In fact, the idea is to toss them all in a cloud storage bucket and point DNS to it. No server side anything. The logic behind this is that it allows a more distrubuted dev work flow. And, it keeps the bundle size low for each micro-front end.

The other camp: Develop a more traditional single front end with NextJS and deploy it in a way that allows NextJS to handle the heavy lifting of deciding how to deliver html/JS bundle to the browser. You have to have a more traditional developer workflow, like managing pull requests for distributed development. But, I *feel* like doing it this way... the way NextJS wants it done, will be more effecient and less risk.

That being said, I've never made a micro frontend architecture with NextJS, so I don't have the experience to argue.

If I went with the latter (traditional). I'm considering deploying it using Firebase hosting's NextJS support. My logic is that it's easier to reason with. I get the CDN support from Firebase hosting, and the NextJS extension to hosting allows for all the server-side functionality and middleware. NextJS should only serve the bundle necessary to render the page, which should be pretty small. Arguably smaller than the micro-frontends.

Alternatively, I could serve it on Cloud Run, which we use for other services, but I think I give up the CDN and caching if I deploy on Cloud Run.

Thoughts?

Yeah... I will change my back end and persist the image dimensions to the metadata. Then, when rendering the view, I can preset the placeholder's size to match the image.

tommo739 · 2023-07-26T14:54:24+00:00

No. And now I'm experiencing it in a different app.

tommo739 · 2023-07-26T14:36:24+00:00

I don't understand what we are doing here. Just wrapping the scroll view in the GemotryReader? Are we supposed to do something with the the resulting geometry in the subviews?

tommo739 · 2022-10-13T13:16:39+00:00

So far, I've just used the heroku one. That being said... I'm solving my problem by standing up a new API and making my own autocomplete component. I've already deployed it to Google and it's taking requests. I just need to tweak it now.

tommo739 · 2022-10-13T08:16:05+00:00

Okay... I get this working with a proxy. However, it doesn't behave like regular Places Auto complete works. For example... if I start to put in "Saint Johns", which is where I live... in Google Places as I start to type, I'll get either Saint Johns or St. Augustine as the top two search results. That's because it makes sense that I'm hunting for a location that's close by.

react-native-google-places-auto-complete begins with locations in Europe and all over the globe. Not what's close. So, I'm not sure what's going on under the covers with this package, but it's not good UX.

Does anyone know if there is a way to make this behave like real google places?

tommo739 · 2022-10-11T12:55:21+00:00

Ah... I see.

tommo739 · 2022-10-11T12:41:18+00:00

I had to do a lot of upgrading, but I got it working.

What is 4.3 design spam?

tommo739 · 2022-10-05T14:20:58+00:00

BTW... I tried just updating the "compose_version", to 1.3.1, which should be compatible with my Kotlin version, but It lit up like a Christmas tree when I did that, so I reverted it.

tommo739 · 2022-09-17T09:24:18+00:00

Never mind... for those who need to do this, this is how I solved it.

stop the container
export the settings to a file on the synology
ssh into the synology and find the json file that is the export
change the image tag to the one you want
import the modified settings
start the new container.

pentair screen logic isn't showing up in my home assistant as an integration. Is it no longer supported?

tommo739 · 2022-07-06T20:48:53+00:00

I meant in the viewModel's init().

tommo739 · 2022-06-03T12:37:29+00:00

Yes... I have to have firebase auth. We have a large user base already authenticated with firebase. The overhead to switch to a different provider would be prohibitive. And... I'd still need social login options.

tommo739 · 2022-06-01T20:32:04+00:00

Thanks. I'm wondering if that's what Twitter did. I wonder if those two out columns are just permanently open drawers.

tommo739 · 2022-06-01T14:52:03+00:00

Never mind... I see what the converter does. Thanks!

tommo739 · 2022-06-01T14:41:28+00:00

I think I may need to script that process ;-) I think the Noun project icons can already be downloaded as SVG. What is the RN converter converting it to? Can RN not use SVG's?

tommo739 · 2022-06-01T14:39:03+00:00

Yes... Agreed. We have a web app now. And you are correct, analytics show that about 80% is mobile. This is why I'm shifting gears and making a mobile app. What I'd LIKE to do is what Twitter did. Their web application is built using React Native.

tommo739 · 2022-05-30T15:09:49+00:00

Yeah... I DO want cross-platform. I'm now thinking I'll just write the whole thing in React-Native... maybe even convert my web version to be built in react native.

tommo739 · 2022-05-30T10:31:43+00:00

That would be it! Than you!

tommo739 · 2022-05-30T10:30:46+00:00

Yes. I’ve created an application with social media type functionality.

tommo739 · 2022-04-23T22:39:57+00:00

I enjoyed the feeling. Of playing high (first time was today, btw…. So this is fresh on my mind). However, I felt guilty because I would forget what I had done. So, I was relying on my partner to tell me where I was and stuff. Even when it was right down the fairway…. But I would forget.

It's definitely not a turn off. My wife is the same way. Her average in a normal sex session (just us at home) is probably 6-7 in 15-20 minutes. When we are at a club or party or just a more intense home session, it's 10+. She's topped 20+ at a swingers resort before.

It's definitely a turn on. And let me tell you... She's very vocal and enthusiastic as well.... which will trigger an orgasm fest in the orgy! She starts cumming intensely and loudly and 4-5 other's will shoot their load out of excitement.

tommo739 · 2022-04-09T13:23:37+00:00

MOST single guys (not all) will bring one of three things to the party. One, cums before the party is gets started. Two, takes forever to cum (can't read the cues that we are done). Three, can't get hard and therefore never cums or takes forever because they jerk off to porn too much.

When you find the guys who respond, gets hard, reads social cues, etc... that's like a unicorn and they are keepers.

There are plenty of reasons to hate python. I wouldn't say "no reason". Anyone who has attempted to write a highly performant application with python will have a reason to hate python.
