Is this project still maintained?

The repo was updated almost an year ago; Is this project still maintained. I think it's really cool but I'm a bit hesitant to use it since it's not updated for some time. Maintainers please comment on this. Thank You

I'm not actively developing it as the upcoming React server actions will support nearly the same behavior. I'd accept no new features, but would accept bug fixes when necessary.

I originally thought server action is the same but it's not. It looks like server action is designed for mutation only. There is no out of box RPC pattern for fetching data yet.

tbh, if you think it's a bad idea to do data fetching in server actions, then it's also a bad idea to do it with next-rpc. it doesn't bring any advantage over server actions.

@Janpot Let me give you one simple example why that's not the case. Multiple server actions cannot be executed in parallel, each has to wait for the previous one to finish, meaning that muliple parts of your page cannot fetch data at the same time.

Ok, that makes sense. Will need to make a few updates to allow alternative ways of configuring rpc routes. Feel free to comment on #54 (comment) and suggest alternatives.
