From 0 to Production - The Modern React Tutorial (RSCs, Next.js, Shadui, Drizzle, TS and more)

[@t3dotgg]

UPDATES: - create-t3-app now uses latest Next, which should fix some bugs with hot reloading on parallel routes - MAKE SURE YOU USE THE DEFAULT PREFIX WHEN SETTING UP VERCEL POSTGRES - Clerk Core 2 is no longer in beta! If you just `pnpm install @clerk/nextjs` you will have this version now :) Oh also - GITHUB REPO IS HERE: github.com/t3dotgg/t3gallery

Heya!!!! Thank you for the video!!! it was super helpful. You said at the start you would explain why no TRPC. Are you able to? Also, a follow on for this where you show how to for production state management / the zustand setup would be really cool:) Thank you for your content and the effort you put in!! your contributions to the community are never ending and appreciated greatly by me and so many others!!!!

[@R0cky0]

Yo, I want to appreciate for the amount of work and effort you put into this also by not putting up a paywall and choosing not to take the easy path. Making this available (for free) to the community is truly commendable. Your work is worth so much more than those who charge for courses however are much less informative than this. A million thanks!

THANK YOU

[@akinoreh]

@@t3dotgg It'd be nice if this was also a playlist with shorter videos. It's easier to consume that way. Personally, I won't be watching this in one go. While having chapters help, it's still one video. Haven't started yet, but I'm curious how beginner friendly this is. While I'm good at JS, I haven't tried any front-end library/framework (although, I keep tabs on them). So I think it requires some kind of leap from plain JS to front-end libraries. I currently have that mental gap. Hope this helps a little.

[@RogueTravel]

@@akinorehI’d be so sad if this was broken up into a playlist.

[@akinoreh]

@@RogueTravel Notice the "also". Besides, what's the advantage of a single video (contrary to a playlist)?

[@JSLegendDev]

@@akinoreh As someone who makes programming tutorials (JavaScript gamedev tutorials), there are big negatives with publishing in multiple parts. Here are the main two : - Next parts will always make progressively less views than the first part giving the impression that your channel is dying. - It clutters your channel and makes it hard to find content.

Finally, a video where you're not just reading from an article.

[@MrMazvaz]

Quick tip using as a modal. To style the backdrop, just use the ::backdrop pseudo-class. In tailwind it would be className="backdrop:bg-zinc-900/50". This way you dont have to worry about the margins and having it cover the entire screen etc. The backdrop is already there for you

[@23rbnHD]

0 to Production with Full Test Coverage. That would be such an interesting follow up. Breaking down how each of the best practices and starting points your tutorial covers would fit into a CI testing stack (end to end and unit). That said, so far, so really really helpful. Thanks a bunch.

[@catalinpreda4666]

Theo doesn't really do TDD iirc - he thinks shipping code fast >>> maintaining both the codebase & tests (his mindset is very "move fast and disrupt this is sillicon valley let's make money" so he values good analytics and deploying a fix quickly more than deploying tested code; if he had a background in banking, medical or other sensitive software he might think differently) A good start is keeping your UI code decoupled from business logic (the new server actions seem useful for this) and have some Jest unit tests for each action. The better you are at separation of concerns the easier it is to test logic. There are libraries to test UI renders how you want or mock interactions and test a user journey end to end, but I find those very easy to break and a lot of overhead. With UI I think easily doing "prototype -> get feedback -> redesign" is very valuable so you have to balance if UI tests are adding value or it's just a development burden

[@ErikTheHalibut]

Theo, please keep making tutorials like this! This is extremely helpful as a learning dev.

Just finished tutorial. Gotta say, gallery app was, in my opinion, an amazing choice for a project to showcase RSCs.

[@bkschatzki]

For those having an issue with it trying to getImage of the image you just deleted: check whether it only applies to parallel routes or also after hard navigating to that image. Ask yourself why that is. Search "next 14.2 parallel routes redirect workaround". The default.tsx just needs a page.tsx also returning a null. This has to do with how Next handles soft navigation. A few behaviors must have changed since this video was made, and the docs show a slightly different setup for the slot.

[@aristosxanthus514]

Appreciate the solution!

[@M.G.Simard]

Keeping it short; for anyone running into a build problem near 27:00 and you followed instructions not to rename POSTGRES_URL (and you might be paused wondering if it's fine to just replace all instances of "DATABASE_URL" to "POSTGRES_URL" in your project). He does go and fix that at around 30:00. Still useful for anyone who might pause vid after running into issue trying to fix it themselves before it's presented 3min later.

Of course the typing's are a real +, but what I really like is that you can use composition to build your query's. eg. lets assume you have a complex sub query you want to say do an `inArray` with, you can then create a function and re-use in other query's, you could say it's a bit like Views but been able to use props, and of course still have strong typing's. Nice!!!!

If youre new please focus on learning all these techs and buzz words at a low level. Using abstractions over abstraction will only hurt you. Learn how to setup a small linux cloud instance yourself. Learn SQL queries without a orm and aurogenerated queries. Learn how auth works and create your own. Yes it takes 10x more time in the start but you wont be tied to specifc frameworks and lock in.

I agree with you although the most important thing is to start coding and stay motivated. If you go low level it won't be that easy.

[@codyrap95]

I agree with what you say but not with the approach. You should start coding/building sth and get employed ASAP. Motivation, money and energy are not unlimited. After getting a job and feeling rewarded by actually building something you can tackle the more difficult concepts, which will also help you in your job and not just for building hello world. Otherwise you will get stuck and frustrated trying to understand why you are learning SQL queries but you are still not able to make a basic UI. That's what I did and it went well. After getting a job I started learning advanced JS concepts, advanced git, accessibility, then NodeJS for backend, security, databases. If I went deep from the start, I would still be unemployed and frustrated today.

​@@codyrap95get employed ASAP while knowing nothing? I worked with people like that before (especially but not limited to bootcamp grads) and they all sucked, and the company fired them after 6 months when it was clear they didn't know even the basics. So I agree with the above commenter, yes it's important to have motivation but it's also equally important to learn the basics. If you need to gain motivation via building, then just build with the basics instead of abstractions, ie make apps with just HTML, CSS and JS without React at first.

To reset the env vars in Vercel, go to storage->projects->[...] (context menu for your project)->Remove Project Connection. Afterwards, just add the connection again with the default settings.

Coming back here to mention this while working on my second standalone Nextjs project -- any drizzle-kit version more recent than 0.22.8 will have multi-project schema issues where db:push tries to destroy your DB by attempting a sequence drop on your other projects' primary keys, you'll get an error when trying to push with multiple projects.

It's crazy how we use all these technologies now when a long long time ago we could just create a PHP file, and then add some Javascript and we're good.

I wish someone took us through a before and after video saying "this is what the world was like before Tech X and here look at this new shiny tech that makes all of this unnecessary". That would really help to motivate the barrage of crap that gets thrown at us in web dev world.

Not sure if anyone has come across this issue but: Whenever I delete and image and I redirect back to the root path redirect("/"); and then I want to click on another image to open it in the "modal" I can see the url change but nothing happens in the UI (i..e I am trying to open image on @modal/(.)image/[id]/ again, the screen just stays the same (homepage screen). I have to do a full page reload for it to work... not sure what I did wrong but struggling to debug this.

[@cosminvoinopol705]

Came to comment cause I had a similar issue, I imagine it was the same cause but you noticed a different behaviour due to different versions. The root problem is that redirect("/") does not cause the modal to dismiss itself properly, even though the path has changed and it should not stay up. I had this problem in 2 versions. In Next 14.2.4 the modal completely stays up even though redirect was called and the path is changed. So it's not dismissed at all. In Next 14.2.3 what you're describing happens: the modal is dismissed, but something breaks and we cannot open other images to see their modals. I downgraded to 14.1.4, I think this is what Theo had in the video. It works. So it's a Next bug. For others having problems with deleting, try another Next version until it works. Easiest fix, unless you need specific Next versions. And a side note. Though I can't remember what the issue was, something from an earlier part of the video forced me to downgrade from 14.2.4 to 14.2.3. A rule of thumb: if the code is the same as in the video but yours doesn't work, your Next version has a bug. Hope this helps

​@@cosminvoinopol705 I ran into this issue too and this helped! Thank you so much

@@cosminvoinopol705 I was having the exact same issue with redirect("/") not dismissing the modal. Whenever I would delete an image, the app would crash because FullPageImageView would try to render the deleted image and throw an "Image not found" error. By downgrading Next to 14.1.4, it works perfectly now. Hopefully Next can fix this bug in the modal. It's such a cool feature.

@@cosminvoinopol705 Thanks, this worked for me, I got really confused trying to debug this.

Oh wow! This is crazy, thank you for putting this out.

For anyone that had issues during the first db:push getting timeout and other errors, apart from using node 18.7 that allowed me to see just one error, try doing the db:push while connected to another network like your phone hotspot. You might need to call your isp or change your isp to get it fixed

Fantastic, cant wait to get stuck in !!!
