Oh God, setting neovim is hard

Nice response😂

I’ve been setting up my PC OS with Arch these past two days and my back actually hurts 😭.
Yesterday I tried configuring Arch into Archcraft since it’s a lighter Arch distro, but it wouldn’t run most React frameworks — kept throwing HSM errors.
So today I switched to Omarchy, and honestly, I love it. It’s simple, clean, and the animations are just smooth.

I’m starting to hate this “vibe coding” trend. It’s messing with a lot of devs’ minds — I’ve been there too.
You can use AI tools for almost anything, sure. But don’t depend on them for coding.
Use them only when you already understand what you’re doing — when the code feels easy, or when you’re just tired of typing endless lines.
But don’t learn coding from AI. Learn from the documentation. That’s where the real knowledge is.

Pro tip: Don’t just copy code. Read the docs. Understand the “why” behind every function, hook, and method. That’s how you truly level up.

I usually prefer working on MERN stack projects, but now I’m shifting my focus to Next.js. Why? Next.js comes with a bunch of really cool features like server-side rendering (SSR), static site generation (SSG), API routes, built-in routing, image optimization, and great TypeScript support — things that make building full-stack apps smoother and more powerful.

Here’s how I usually structure my projects:

MERN Stack:
Frontend: Vite + React, Shadcn/UI for components, Better Auth, Tailwind CSS
Backend: Node.js + Express, Better Auth, MongoDB Atlas for storage

Next.js:
Next.js + Better Auth + Tailwind CSS + Drizzle ORM (I use PostgreSQL) + Shadcn/UI

Next.js just feels cleaner and faster for modern full-stack apps, and combining it with Better Auth and Drizzle makes everything so much easier to manage.

in the official docs of shadcn they states initilizing shadcn through bun

bunx --bun shadcn@latest init 

but, I faced some difficulties, for example the initialization is not completed it just loads, then I did some digging and I found some reddit post and it cooled my frustration the correct way of initializing is

bun x --bun shadcn@latest init 

the solution is just add some spacing between the bun and x
