Fastify DX is a CLI for rapid application development using the Fastify stack. It aims to offer many of the same functionalities found in Next.js, Nuxt.js and Remix, but instead of relying on deep runtime internals, focus on code generation and glue code for setting up and running Fastify projects, both in development and production.
Motivations
Effective SSR is locked away in black boxes today
Lots of buy-in into chosen framework is necessary
Companies often struggle scaling bringing Next.js apps to optimal performance
Next.js, Nuxt.js and Remix are all based on the Express middleware paradigm
Good chunk of projects still dependent on CRA/webpack
No de-facto solution for minimal (primitives only) SSR available
Features
Not a framework nor runtime, all generated code is pure Fastify and plugins
CLI web view with insights and logging filters for available sites
Out-of-the-box integrated hot reload for server with Vite app
Core
Packages that are part of the core boilerplate.
middie
fastify
fastify-redis (optional)
fastify-mongodb (optional)
fastify-postgresql (optional)
mercurius (optional)
fastify-api (optional)
fastify-vite
fastify-static
Commands
The CLI is meant to be installed globally, each command backed by zx script which can also be ejected and tweaked to meet custom project requirements.
fdx eject <boilerplate>: ejects boilerplate in its original format.
fdx apply: modifies current boilerplate but based on settings uni.config.js
fdx dev <site>: runs the specified site in development mode, or the last site ran.
fdx build <site>: runs the specified site in production mode
fdx start <site>: runs the specified site in production mode
fdx gen <site>: statically generates the specified site
The goal is to build up from fastify-cli with several DX oriented changes and additions, along with new and updated documentation.
