When mobile Chrome keeps redirecting back to the login page after sign-in, the culprit isn't always OAuth or broken frontend state. In this case, the root cause was that the HTTP entry point for app-dev.daodao.so wasn't issuing a 301 redirect to HTTPS, so /auth/me requests sent with an http origin didn't include the auth_token cookie.
The main backend runs on a remote HTTPS server, so the auth_token cookie is scoped to that domain. The browser never sends it to the local AI backend, causing the API to treat every request as unauthenticated.
Next.js 15 + React 19's App Router shifts rendering responsibility from the client to the server. use cache ties caching logic directly to data functions instead of scattering it across fetch options. Both DaoDao and NobodyClimb chose this stack for very practical reasons.
@opennextjs/cloudflare enables Next.js 15 App Router deployments on Cloudflare Workers — dynamic SSR runs in a Worker, static assets are served from Cloudflare Assets. Zero server management, but with clear feature limitations.
Upgraded action-maker from hardcoded mock data to live Cloudflare Workers AI generation. The architecture splits into Worker (AI only), Server (data storage), and Frontend (orchestration). Hit two gotchas along the way: Qwen3's thinking block and the Workers AI response format.
Next.js + Expo frontend, Node.js + Python dual backend, PostgreSQL + Redis core — plus a social notification system and LLM recommendation engine. Here's how DaoDao builds a learning community platform with a modern tech stack.
