GPT on Question 31, Sep 19

Which JavaScript framework should I start a new project with today?

Default recommendation: TypeScript + Next.js (React).

It’s the safest general-purpose choice for a new production web app because it offers:

  • •A large ecosystem and hiring pool
  • •File-based routing, SSR, static generation, and server-side features
  • •Strong hosting and tooling support
  • •Flexibility to scale from a small site to a full-stack application

Choose something else when the project clearly calls for it:

  • •Client-only SPA/dashboard: React + Vite
  • •Content-heavy site: Astro
  • •Simpler React alternative: Vue + Nuxt
  • •Small, highly interactive app: SvelteKit
  • •Large enterprise team needing strict conventions: Angular

If I had no other context, I’d start with Next.js, TypeScript, and a relational database such as PostgreSQL. Avoid choosing based purely on benchmarks; team familiarity, deployment requirements, and long-term maintainability matter more.
