You're not doing it wrong.

For most CRUD apps, Next.js + tRPC is the right call.

My tipping point was long-running tasks (OCR, AI processing that takes 30+ seconds) and wanting to scale backend compute separately from frontend serving.

If you don't have those needs, stick with what you have.

Thanks for the answer! I've hit those tipping points myself in exactly the same scenarios (OCR and AI). For me, ends up being hacky or just decoupled (independent job runners). Makes sense to have a proper monolith backend for these.

Congrats on the launch again!

dbos.dev should take care of long-running tasks, but I haven't tried running too many tasks yet as my other bigger projects all use Temporal
