This is why you'll need polling in your web applications

Underrated. A lot of times we get videos on concepts that are too advanced or too tutorial-like. Concepts at this level are relatable for intermediate engineers trying to build stuff but aren't aware of solutions like these. Also SST looks pretty cool, gotta try that out!

Server-sent events can be a really nice alternative to polling and websockets. It is a long-lived connection, but it is one-way communication only and the protocol is so simple you don't need a library for it. On the backend it usually looks like a regular HTTP endpoint handler, but instead of ending the response immediately, it keeps it open and keeps writing to it over time.

i work for a sportsbetting company where we get a ton of dynamic updates constantly.

we use an enterprise platform horizontally scalable web sockets. it’s cool stuff

MAN this channel keeps me so up to date with the best practices and topics. Keep them coming!

These are my favourite videos. I know you're doing a tailwind course but if you ever wanted to do a Kent Dodd's style infra/handling bigger codebases course I'd be interested

Very nice content! Suprisingly, I have a project of mine with a similar design, where I'm also using sqs, dead-letter queues, lambdas and polling. The only thing I would suggest is to use step functions as well. They can help organizing your backend logic having a retry/catch all mechanism across the whole backend. It will make it easier to sync the changes with the db.

I think this is a perfect use case to build an event driven architecture with a WebSocket per client.

Hi there, Cody. I have been watching your videos for quite some time, and I really love them. They are straight-to-the-point and easy to understand. Could you make a video on database modelling, like how many entities will be there in production and what type of database would you use for each of the entities? (like some entities might be sql based and some might be nosql based)

I was wondering what the pros/cons of using web sockets instead, thanks for mentioning them at the end lol

[ardianhotii]

Very useful app for new ideas, I like this very much I'll use this for my new side projects ideas. Thank you for sharing this with us, keep going strong like always

Isn’t there a problem with this approach where if you have 2 sessions, dashboard will not be synced because only the one that created request is polling?

[basiccoder]

This is a gold content I was looking for

Nice vid! Would server side events also be a nice alternative? That way the server only sends the request back when it's ready, and no useless requests. Can be a lot more advanced and more overhead to setup but could potentially be a better alternative?
It would be nice to hear your option on this.

Nice project though, i'm 100% going to check it out

[aytee]

Am I going crazy or do you have some new side project running every video? How do you manage 😫

[bessimboujebli]

1: the project is really amazing
2: great video content and explanation

[changyongfan]

Trying to do a similar architecture, just planning to use AWS Lambda for consuming the SQS queue

[katanaut]

Very useful tips as always and at the right time 😅 Thanks 😊

[code-master]

how do you develop UI fast? I am strugging to remember all the material/ui components.

[wilsonmela]

Amazing guy, thanks for your good works

I'm beginner web dev, I found it hard to know which features my app needs. This will be really helpful
