Kicking and screaming, I finally succumbed to TypeScript on the server. I used to do everything with Phoenix or Rails, but nowadays its hard to fight the full-stack type safety (even if its mostly an illusion) of something like Remix/Hono with React + Drizzle/Kysely.

I hate having to wire everything together, and how I might have to rewrite it next month, and how there is no standardised way to do anything, and how I have to install a library for everything and figure out how to make them work together.

But the types won me over.
