I decided today for an upcoming project for Europe to first try it on Hetzner using the Wappler discount. Maybe a good testing environment before deciding to keep going with Hetzner or try another hosting service.
I am here when I decide to search the forums at Wappler for discussions I had seen before.
I soon find this “discussion” that is obviously relevant to my decision of how far to commit my next few hours:
Hosting with Hetzner considerations
The “discussion” rolls on and on but I quickly see @psweb
How many Wappler users originally develped for PHP/MySQL servers?
Setup to get a working dynamic site live on the web was profoundly SIMPLE compared to the procedures to work with the newer javascript fathered/mothered hosting setups.
I had hosting accounts, some of them on self-managed servers, that had worked out some STANDARDS on Admin Panels for paths, services, dns, etc. The hosting that had not come up with sensible logic and admin tools I avoided.
But the internet forums today are loaded with these kinds of discussions & tutorial videos that make me think that Web & App development 2021 has taken LUDICROUS leaps backwards. The intracacies of getting a new application that meets all the myriad & varying Hosting logic is just astounding.
I’ve been around long enough to remember pre-COVID pandemic hosting environments when mounting a new project and TROUBLESHOOTING did not branch into thousands of possibilities that took hours to slowly weed through.
I’m fully aware of the Benefits of apps these days but what I see is a continuing complication of thousands of libraries that must all work without a hitch both IN the application and in the server hosting itself.
It has gotten retrogressively MORE COMPLEX to program today’s applications while we are touting “low code” IDE tools.
Will it take Artificial Intelligence to just create Cross-hosting platform setups in the future?
What’s the most logical, most “elegant” state-of-the-art hosting for Node services anyone has worked with?
Thank you!
