Angular vs Next.js: Tooling and Features Comparison

This is a quick overview of 1-to-1 mapping of Angular's core and widely used third-party tools to their Next.js counterparts. This overview will cover aspects, including state management, API communication, authentication, testing, SSR, PWA support, and more.

State Management

Angular: Angular uses dependency injection and services to handle state. Components can share state via injectable services, often avoiding the need for a separate state library for simple cases (Angular & React - Diff of Services & Context API | ITNEXT). For more complex global state, Angular developers turn to NgRx (inspired by Redux), which leverages RxJS to manage a centralized store of state with actions and reducers. Other Angular state libraries like NGXS o

Installing microk8s in an LXC container

I wanted to run Microk8s on a Proxmox 6 host inside of an LXC container. These are my notes from the journey.

2. SSH into the Proxmox host and edit the container's config in /etc/pve/lxc/.conf
   • Add the following lines

• lxc.apparmor.profile: unconfined

# On the old machine, create a list of all installed packages
apt list --installed 2>/dev/null | sed 's/\/.*//g > pkglist'


# On the new machine, Filter packages for those available

# Install the available packages all at once
sudo apt install $(tr '\n' ' ' <packages-valid)

Brightness Control Widget for Qtile

This module provides a reusable brightness control widget for the Qtile window manager.
It uses the 'xrandr' command to adjust the screen brightness and stores the brightness level
in a configuration file. This file is located under the user's home directory in a folder
named ".screenlayout".
