GPT on Question 31, Oct 1

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

Default recommendation: Next.js with TypeScript.

Choose it when you’re building a production web app and want a large ecosystem, straightforward deployment, server rendering, API routes, and strong hiring/community support.

Use something else when your priorities differ:

  • •SvelteKit — simplest, most enjoyable option for a small team or greenfield product.
  • •Nuxt — best if your team prefers Vue.
  • •Angular — strong choice for large, structured enterprise teams.
  • •Astro — content-heavy sites, documentation, blogs, or marketing pages with minimal JavaScript.
  • •Vite + React/Vue/Svelte — client-only SPA that doesn’t need SSR or a full-stack framework.

My practical starting stack would be:

Next.js + TypeScript + PostgreSQL

Use the current stable Node.js LTS, keep dependencies minimal, and only add state-management libraries if you actually need them. If developer simplicity matters more than ecosystem size, pick SvelteKit instead.
