I’m working on a simple application, and thought React would be helpful. The react docs now recommend you use a framework, and recommended nextJS. I tried it out, but it seems like it’s really working against my goals for this application. I want something that will run statically without a server, since the API calls should be made from the client. They provide a lot of server features, but it looked like you had ways to turn them off. However I finally hit a snag trying to do static deployment and dynamic routing. I wanted a route like /post/<postname> and they really wanted me to be able to enumerate all the possible routes. I think this just wasn’t what I wanted.
I’m fairly happy with what React is providing me, so maybe I go with a lighter framework.
