Welcome to Syntax. Today, we've got a potluck episode for you today. Keep the questions coming. Syntax.fm in the URL bar. You can submit your own question and we'll answer it on a future episode. Today, we're talking about monorepos, really good explanation or really good question about a problem somebody has that a mono repo is going to solve it. Do you really need a server for a React application,

or is a Cloudflare worker enough for when you need that? A Java developer thinks that the Node.js

ecosystem is a mess. A good question about, like, how do you possibly use NextJS without TanStack

query? So we're going to go into a lot of the new invalidation APIs on NextJS, someone transitioning from a musician to an engineer, and all kinds of new stuff.

Let's get on into it.

I'm wearing a different shirt right now because we forgot to record this intro.

So now we're going to cut to me and Scott.

Awesome.

And if you would like the best tools to make sure your application is running as smoothly as possible, head on over to sentry.

Dot I.O.

In fact, they just added uptime monitoring, which is something that I use uptime monitoring all the time.

And now I don't have to go somewhere else for it.

I can have it directly in my century settings, make sure my applications are up as much as I think they are.

In fact, I had an issue west, my habit path, which was hosted on Coolify. And something

happened with my Coolify or my server, and it crashed. And I didn't realize that it crashed. But what it didn't do is

it didn't restart all of my services. So here I know that my server's up and running, but the

habit path was down and I didn't know because I mean, I didn't know until I used to somebody

send me a message or whatever. But that's exactly the type of issue you don't want with any application,

especially something if other people are using it, right?

So uptime monitoring is something that's important to have on just about any web property

that you care about people seeing because if you're not checking it 24-7 and it goes down,

you might not have any clue.
