PodRocket - A web development podcast from LogRocket

Mark Dalgleish joins us to talk about the latest in React Router, including its growing support for React Server Components (RSC). He breaks down what RSC data mode, framework mode, and declarative mode mean for developers, and how features like the middleware API and route module API are simplifying work across tools like Vite and Parcel. We also dive into how React 19, static site generation with RSC, and smarter data batching are reshaping performance and the future of server-side rendering in React apps.

Carson Gross, creator of HTMX, talks about its evolution from intercooler.js, its viral rise on social media, and its philosophy of simplicity and stability. They dive into how HTMX fits into the modern web dev ecosystem, the idea of building 100-year web services, and why older technologies like jQuery and server-side rendering still have staying power. Carson also shares insights on open-source marketing, progressive enhancement, and the future of web development.
