Hey Sahand, I just wanted to say how much I love your videos! I’ve been following your work for a while now, and I really admire how genuine and real your teaching style is. You’re one of the few creators who doesn’t just code in an idealized bubble-you approach projects like a real developer would, starting with a proper UI and working through things systematically. It’s so refreshing and relatable. That being said, I had a small thought about your latest video. The moment I saw Clerk mentioned for authentication, I kind of paused the video. Personally, even for the smallest projects, I prefer building the authentication myself. It just feels more robust and in my control, especially since relying on a third-party service for such a critical part of the project can be risky in the long run. Of course, I haven’t even watched the full video yet, and I’m sure you’ve got good reasons for using it. I just hope you stick to the kind of content that’s brought you so much success-the practical, down-to-earth coding approach we all love. Keep doing what you’re doing, because it’s inspiring a lot of us! Much love and best wishes,

[@reactproject]

I'll keep in mind your preference for building authentication myself. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Firstly I am very thankfull to you creating a amazing and very helpful content I have a question about deployment process is this project is for deploy on vercel and is this possible to deploy it on hostinger without cloud and vps. and why you preffered to use firebase instead of cloudinary for storing image?

[@reactproject]

Thanks for your comment, i will try a new one in the next video

[@obayedullahkhan764]

Hello sir, I have also degrade the version of clerk but metadata issue is not solving. Even I tried by redeploy the project.

[@reactproject]

Try clearing your browser cache and hard refreshing the page.

[@obayedullahkhan764]

I am facing an issue with the latest Next.js version (15). When I create the blog project following your tutorial I am getting an hydration error even I clone your GitHub code and set up the environment variables, still I am getting the hydration error. But when I create a new Next.js app using version 14, the hydration error doesn't occur. What steps should I take to resolve this issue? Should I go with next14? I plan to use the project for production, so I want to ensure that everything is set up optimally. Could you suggest the best practices for making my Next.js website production-ready and improving SEO? Lastly, thank you again for your help with my previous comment!

[@reactproject]

decrease your react version down, it might be useful, the new version of react has bugs still

[@obayedullahkhan764]

The problem solved by using NEXT14. But clerk webhook is not identifying in Vercel. I check multiple time that I have added the right webhook to .env.local file but Vercel is saying to add webhook in .env or .env.local file and clerk is giving me failed error in the endpoints log.

[@reactproject]

decrease your clerk version too

I recommend checking your server configuration for any limits on file sizes.

One problem I can't solve in last 4 days. I entered the right webhook but still getting the error to add webhook secret in .env.local . Getting failed message from clerk. How to solve it.

[@reactproject]

You should double-check if the webhook is properly configured in your Clerk dashboard and ensure the secret is correctly added to your .env.local file. Check github repo for more info.

I can't reach your twitter. Can u share your social media so I can tag u after completing the project
