Support next.js commerce v2?

[szluyufeng]

Does spree have plans to support next.js commerce v2?
It seems like v1 has been abandoned.

Alternatively, is there any plan to rewrite the rails frontend using Hotwire?

Hi @szluyufeng - we're reviewing this currently, hopefully we'll be able to post an update on the state of frontends in the upcoming weeks. We've had a bit of a challenge with next.js commerce and lack of clarity on their roadmap.
I think we may as well end up just bumping the next.js version in the current starter - the next.js commerce package is overall just a next.js setup with a ready-made integration and a pack of template UI components.

Thanks for your reply! I'm really excited about it. I'm also thinking about using Hotwire and Tailwind to revamp the frontend of Rails. Personally, I think Hotwire is already strong enough to handle a more modern frontend. As you know, the JavaScript world is changing so fast, and I'm kind of struggling to keep up with it.
