Next.js vs Wasp: same app, same prompt. Use 42% fewer tokens:

Language development is what initially drove me to Wasp and to start working with Martin and Matija. What made me stay is an incredible team and dedication to deliver the best framework for full-stack web apps.

@_cprecioso @infomiho In most cases, yes. I think the main difference comes down to distribution: #code/PQKgUIABQYBxSH8Uj8FIdgpAjFFN6ObZQDhSGgKNQCApBiiizKzEAIKQQApNB3ikBOKQAYpzWxBxinMMEgKawJApAQBSASCiFMWbQoCIKQAIUrTLz6AmCiGAQigyQIU1HLKBzinQaohQMwU2rIAKKQHgU3BZRWANCkDlFIEcKbJkKBmijPpAHRRZAnRTUgJwUshCGGICYFHTemuziUIABFIB6FFCA4hRQ4RiEgP0UgGYUoeiAiBR8JYBYFIAgFBCAHhRurB6AMxSS8Vg4tBlyhIDdFIDcFLmAtBSAkxSAkhQ2gNgU8ICxFEOE6joQxoASFIBFFNLcxgyh3IDIFKK1OhGAYRQRgGcU0oQRE3ySgCUULNySKpmshIDEFIA8FISFKtJfUNyFkjeTzmUAigDKKQATFIBwCnUIGAYGAwAABAAJACmACc0QByADOSIALgALNFIrEAQwANkjKQBLAB2AGsAFxIhHIokEgkAB1xzMRAHchQA6AkAT25aNxAGMMbTuQTKeT6QBzYUAewxKuA3KVYuAAH4AMTS9UAEzRwAAwgAWAAqAoAIiruSqAEIAQRVlKtAA4AKqOtH+q0AcQ9AFcANJu+kATQ99I9lJVKLjjoAtv6PQA3Skex0AdgAUgBFN2hjNEj1agAy5IADABlQuMx3Sj3+qPFgBiHqtAFEBwA5R3DgBWAA8e02AFoojEAZkdpY9TZVA9n1f9q7RaIAah7Q8OVR6UUTT+TS6XHQBWADy2YACgAlDNvlEel+1xmzgC096llaW4dqGTZWuqt5imKlIDgATMWt49i+ADqcYYgARgORI5i+pZ2lGABeuIAJziuSHpPuSA73j2tpWtytJRgKGIAGwJvedoALIANQeh6KG+ma9JEhmHrqh6tZPnGxZNh23J2hGjIRrSPaUqWEalvuPbFoeUYekRjKrkAA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">typescriptlang.org/play/?#code/PQ…

@infomiho I normally use `Extract<Obj, Discriminator>` and `Obj & Discriminator` indistinctly, aren't they the same?

TIL about Extract - I feel I should have known this, but when I saw this helper I felt a relief "ooooh, it's possible to get a piece of discriminated union!"

Launch Week #11, Day 2 Announcement 🔧 Under-the-hood day: How we test Wasp as a fullstack framework The better our tests, the faster we ship! ✦ Learn about Wasp's unique architecture ✦ Why we approach our tests the same as production code ✦ Courage > 100% coverage 🔗👇

@infomiho Haha, I knew you won't resist running it

We got a docs contribution 3 mins after we created the issue. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the visualization of a slop open source contribution.

This is why we're building wasp.sh - a new, truly full-stack framework. Devs want Rails/Laravel experience for JS, but all the attempts so far have failed b/c either the timing was wrong, or the core team gave up (lost motivation, no money). We've been pushing for almost five years and raised >$5M to have serious folks work FT on it. We're getting there, commit by commit.

@hot_town @MartinSosic How do you rename exported symbols in Haskell?

one of my favorite tricks: "rename symbol" instead of select and replace all, use this. it changes the name across your entire codebase, which is really handy if you're renaming exports.

Some Emacs fun: I am Community Captain this sprint at @WaspLang , so I wanted to schedule a task for each working day in the next two weeks. I created one task, ran Emacs command that copies it 14 times with +1d time shift, and voila! I will see a task every day in my org agenda.

Look at our boi, Filip. He's the conference speaker now =}

@hot_town @shadcn @stripe @lemonsqueezy @polar_sh @PlausibleHQ @awscloud Great stuff! I'm still surprised you guys got it out as quickly as you did. Great work to y'all + @FranGrgic

paid SaaS templates are for suckers. Open SaaS v2 is free, open‑source & way more badass: ✦ sexy ui - @shadcn ✦ payments integrated - @stripe @lemonsqueezy @polar_sh ✦ admin dashboard - @PlausibleHQ ✦ secure aws s3 file uploads - @awscloud ✦ full cursor rules & llms.txt - @cursor_ai check out the @ProductHunt launch👇

@ThePrimeagen The biggest problem with the functional programming community is the way functional programmers talk about functional programming

@tejask I have both. The Mac experience is much smoother, from hardware to the random UI stuff. I still prefer Linux. The workflow is more fun (tiling WMs), and I like dealing with the system. If that's not your thing and you'd rather spend time building, you're not missing much :)

i think im ready to consider linux as an os ive been macos loyal and grew up on windows the main deterrent from linux was i loved proprietary software and there were often no or poor linux alternatives specifically i loved photoshop and the closest was the gimp (which sucked) but today most software is cloud based (figma, photopea) anyway so it may be worth switching?

Anyone in Amsterdam @thejsnation? Let's grab some drinks!

@tejask @discord For me, that message is usually a sign of success. When you're behind on Discord's version on Linux, it doesn't let you in (even though it would work). Since I'm not on Debian and I can't always update, I have to do this (screen 2). Seeing "Checking updates" means it worked

PLEASE @DISCORD I BEG YOU ADD BACKGROUND AUTOMATIC UPDATES

"I've heard about this Stuxnet thing, can we use it to replace Postgres" Just another day at @WaspLang Discord

I am not a fan of this immediate painting of most VC-backed startups as evil, it's a cheap emotional play. I am certainly biased as a founder of an open-source VC-backed startup, but it seems the premise is that both VCs and founders are both stupid and evil at the same time? Evil because they care only about money and have no morals or care for other people, and stupid because they are not aware that not respecting users is bad for the project. That is not true for most of the good startups out there, good startups have good, sophisticated investors that understand the market, are quite nice people, and they have founders that care deeply about the product and users and are smart enough to not to do something silly just because an investor suggested so (and most good investors anyway won't be in for something like that). Good founders of open-source startups didn't get into it because they want to get rich, it is easier to make money with normal job while being under quite less stress, but because they want to make something for the others, and because they care about it personally. And the idea that there will no shady stuff because it is not VC-backed, how that does that make sense -> there are still politics, personal interests, ... . Personal reputation is at stake in both cases. It is not about VC backed or bootstrapped, it is about the people doing it -> good people will be good, bad people will be bad.

Waspeteers if you're attending @jsheroes make sure to say hello to @infomiho and @filipsodic Or just follow da boi, he'll be taking over the stage in about an hour.

@infomiho and I are having an awesome time at #JSHeroes2025! Rarely do you see a conference where each talk hits the mark! @WaspLang we should bring everyone next year :D Great work @jsheroes! #JSHeroes

its kinda true tho
