Yesterday, I upgraded @chakra_ui from v0.8 to v1 for my personal site. Here are my thoughts on the upgrade experience.

🧵 A short thread ⬇️
⭐️ Simplified components - Few of the components were merged into one as their functionality were similar, reducing complexity
🚫 Too many changes (which is acceptable for first stable build) - but the DX would have been much better if released with a working codemod
⭐️ A bit smaller output bundle (saved 30k on homepage) - probably due to direct imports for icons, making it tree shakable
🚫 Bug while using Stack component with NextJS due to css style leakage from emotion for SSR github.com/chakra-ui/chak…
⭐️ Adding and using custom icons made simpler. No need to worry about sizing issues when used with other chakra icons
FYI, I'm still happy with using Chakra and making web a tiny bit more accessible.

Sharing a Micro-SaaS Idea from my notes💡

One-liner: Instagram Carousal builder

#saas #microsaas #businessideas
Problem? (1/2)

Making carousals for an Instagram requires you to create multiple images using online platforms like canva or any other graphic editing tools.

❌ Requires you to calculate measurements for image
Problem? (2/2)

❌ No way to preview the content before uploading to Instagram
❌ Need to use additional tools like image splitter
