## What it is
A Hacker News clone rewritten with universal JavaScript using React, Next.js, and GraphQL (Apollo). It serves as a production-ready boilerplate demonstrating SSR, authentication, testing, and Docker deployment.

## Use cases
- learn how to structure a React GraphQL app
- boilerplate for a Next.js SSR project
- clone of hacker news
- example of Apollo client and server setup
- reference for TypeScript React project setup
- starting point for a full-stack JavaScript app

## When to choose
- you want a full-stack React + GraphQL starter with SSR
- you need a reference implementation of Next.js with Apollo and Passport auth
- you want to learn production-ready universal JavaScript patterns

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained, up-to-date starter - the project has not been updated since 2023
- you want a minimal starter without opinionated tooling
- you use a different stack than React/Node/GraphQL

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ssr, graphql, web-framework, auth, boilerplate
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: -
