I played with RedwoodJS over the holidays and there is a lot to like. However it does paper over a lot of complex things with fairly leaky abstractions currently. Expect to have to understand how GraphQL, Prisma, and React work whenever you encounter something that doesn't quite work.

This is not uncommon with most frameworks in the early days. I used Ruby on Rails since just before 2.0 and it was similar back then.

But the team behind RedwoodJS is great, and there's a nice community on Github, Discourse, and Discord. So I'm expecting great things.

Plus it's nice to have an omakase approach to learning all of the new frontend tech and getting something working quickly.

I haven't hit that yet. One of the principals I am following in my side project is to keep everything as simple as possible (he says while using a JS stack!). I know React but have been getting to grips with using GraphQL and Prisma.

TIL what omakase means. Thanks!
