Fran Zekan, an engineer from Croatia with experience in hardware, robotics, and web development, joins Kent to discuss his talk, Shipping Reusable Full-Stack Components. Fran explains how React Server Components (RSCs) allow developers to build truly self-contained, reusable full-stack features—something that has long been a staple in the Rails ecosystem with Rails Engines.

In this conversation, Fran and Kent discuss:

How RSCs simplify full-stack development by eliminating the need for multiple setup steps.
Comparisons between RSCs and Rails Engines, and how they bring backend-like encapsulation to React.
Real-world examples, including a Stripe Checkout component that can be dropped into any app.
The evolution of scaling strategies across different web frameworks, from serverless to Astro’s CDN-first approach.
The future of modular, scalable web apps and the potential for Rails-to-React migration.

Fran also shares why he prioritizes in-person conferences, the value of deep technical discussions, and why he believes the Epic Web Conf community is a perfect space for these conversations.
