As you might know not one tool fits all, I still have strong preferences for the following. It helps me get going faster and get things done right first time and helps in ease of maintenance. Language: Typescript. Frontend Framework: Astrojs [1] or qwik [2] Frontend Library: React if it requires 3d and other frame-motion like animations, else will not use any frontend library or might throw solidjs if required for some state etc. Backend: Cloudflare functions, google functions Auth: Lucia-Auth [3] if required IDE: VS code with neovim , once deployed to git, I might some time use code-spaces CSS: DaisyUI [4] with tailwind or Bulma CSS Library: TailwindUI [5] makes most of the components ready to use and comes from the makers CMS: Astro content collections or Sanity [6] Deployment: Cloudflare (Highly preferred) or linode/digitalocean/netlif

This is neat! I’m curious if you see this being extended for other languages, or the concept being applied in other projects? As for similar concepts, several projects by builder.io have some overlap. Most notably Mitosis[1], but I’d be shocked if TS-Lite[2] isn’t using similar techniques. Potentially Qwik[3] as well but I’m not sure, I would have bet that’s using Mitosis but it looks like that’s the other way around. 1: https://github.com/BuilderIO/mitosis 2: https://github.com/BuilderIO/ts-lite/tree/main/packages/core 3: https://github.com/BuilderIO/qwik

There's plenty of non-Vercel attempts at this and it's kind of table stakes for frameworks hoping to get popular. There is a push for server-first/MPA app development where SSR is assumed to be the baseline. Remix [1], Qwik [2], and Marko [3] are in that camp. I'm not sure about Remix but the other two have a goal of authoring the entire app components but only sending the JS needed for the parts that can change on the client.

Server-side JS is an exceedingly useful tool for certain use cases. Specifically, sharing server and client logic. I know everyone here likes to hate on JS frameworks, but the productivity of being able to build one thing in one language instead of the same thing twice in two languages is hard to overstate. Sure, that has some trade offs like page bloat. But almost all of the JS framework universe is focused now on reducing or eliminating those trade offs: partial hydration, build time code elimination, server components, etc. There’s still a long way to go before the DX and UX reach parity, but it’s inevitable, and closer than one might think (see Qwik[1]). 1: https://github.com/BuilderIO/qwik
