Did you see "compatibilityDate" already?

Thank you for educating us. I think this explanation should also be included in the docs. There is very little in the docs, you explained it in much more detail here. Or maybe just link to this video in the docs.

Was a bit weird indeed adding this from the CLI without knowing what it does. Makes sense now, thanks! Does node-server as a preset have the same chance of major breaking changes?

I understood it but you had to start with that its currently not in use and doesn't matter but will in the future.

I like your videos, but i don't get this one at all. I think it could really use a concrete example

I really did not understand a single thing. Do I need to care about any of that if I use Docker hosting on-premise

Luckily they didnt chose US American date format

Nuxt 4 still needs to upgrade more to compare next js😩
