Developer building open source tools and AI agents
Nice write up. This looks like a good way to get something set up quickly. What advantages are there for using Encore.ts as the backend instead of using Next.js/Node.js for the full solution?
Depends on the use case of course, but for anything more complex you are likely going to want to use multiple services to be able to scale things separately, use multiple databases, etc. This is something that Encore.ts makes very simple. It also uses a Rust based runtime to handle API requests, infrastructure interactions, etc. so it is extremely high performance.
This is gold! I appreciate your effort! ✨
Cool!
Great job! Thank you!
Thanks!

Here's a video on this topic (when not to use Next.js for backend):

Appreciate the video link, thank you. I'll check it out.
Thanks, you show me a new tool to add to my dev tool box
Kindly share the GitHub link
Great point, missed this.
Added to article, but here it is as well: github.com/encoredev/examples/tree...
We wanted to migrate to encore, but it seems their github issues and discussions are not active enough
We're mainly using Discord (encore.dev/discord) as it states on the GitHub page.
