Challenges
Fixing legacy PHP code that handles lead-generation to Express.js
The previous version of the site made use of a legacy PHP code. Although the client didn't mind still using PHP, I proposed using Next.js as a backend, since the backend is super simple and only consists of a single endpoint, that handles the generation of leads.
After a short discussion, we decided to go with Express.js instead, which is also great for small APIs. Apart from less overhead because of the same language used for both backend and frontend, both Express.js and Next.js can easily be deployed through Vercel.
Conclusion
Overall, it was an interesting project to work on and I'm very happy with the results.
