At a glance
The community member has a site that currently serves as an introductory site and a CMS for blogging, built using Webstudio. They are considering expanding the site into a fully-fledged booking web app with features like booking, memberships, and payments. The community members discuss whether it is possible to expand the exported Remix app further or if it is better to build the new features directly within the Webstudio Builder by connecting APIs.
The community members note that while the exported Remix code may not be well-suited for extending and custom coding on top of the JavaScript app code itself, it is better to build the app within the Webstudio Builder by connecting APIs and then exporting it. They also mention that in the future, Webstudio plans to provide reusable components that can be imported from custom code, which may address this limitation.
I have a site with the goal of eventually becoming a fully-fledge booking web app. But for now, it’s just starting with an introductory site and a CMS for blogging, which Webstudio is perfect for. My question is, when the site needs to grow into a booking site with functionalities like booking, memberships, and payments, will it be possible to expand the exported Remix app further?
That’s perfect! So in the future, should I start by building and connecting all the API requests for memberships and other features directly within Webstudio Builder first? Or can I expand the Remix app and continue developing on top of the exported Remix app instead?
So from what I understand, the exported remix code is not suited for extending and custom coding on top of the js app code itself. But it's better to build the app within the builder via connecting APIs and then export it.
