In this episode of JS Party, we dive into three engaging segments. First, we explore the realities of cloud platforms, challenging the idea that cloud services are simply "magic." We stress the importance of understanding the underlying infrastructure to foster innovation. Next, we take a look back at the journey of React, discussing the initial doubts it faced, the vital contributions from the community, and the need to balance developer experience (DX) with user experience (UX). Finally, we turn our attention to Vercel's Next.js framework, examining its connection to React, ongoing improvements in self-hosting, and the launch of v0, an AI-driven tool designed to accelerate application development.
