Server functions don't exist with Jack Herrington

Jack Herrington, podcaster, software engineer, writer and YouTuber, joins the pod to uncover the truth behind server functions and why they don’t actually exist in the web platform. We dive into the magic behind frameworks like Next.js, TanStack Start, and Remix, breaking down how server functions work, what they simplify, what they hide, and what developers need to know to build smarter, faster, and more secure web apps.
