I hacked together a small POC framework / boilerplate tonight which I’d like to share with you. But let’s first take a look at why and how this framework was born out of proven real world concepts and architecture.

Take for example Redux quite a while ago. Immutable states and centralized state management had such an impact that React added a useReducer hook to the core.

Ever since useReducer has been available I haven’t really found a need for Redux anymore. Pure reducers can be used in a similar fashion to Redux and Sagas can easily be implemented with useEffect . However; a few principles stuck with me that simply made life easier because it just works.

TypeScript is a strongly typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to plain JS. It improves code quality, catches errors early, and enhances developer productivity with powerful IDE support like autocompletion, type inference, and safe refactoring. It makes large codebases easier to manage, scales better, and is widely adopted in professional frontend and fullstack development. Mastering TypeScript is essential for advancing in modern development practices.

Working on TYPO3 projects in a mixed OS environment can be challenging—especially when you're on a Windows PC and your projects are originally configured for macOS. Add in a VPN (often required to access private resources), and you’ve got a perfect storm of compatibility headaches. If this sounds familiar, read on—we’ll walk through key setup tips, common pitfalls, and how to fix them.
