“Server Components, streaming, and the App Router represent the future of React. The Vercel deployment experience is unmatched.”
“Only makes sense if you're deep in AWS. The general coding assistance lags behind Copilot and Claude.”

“Amazon's enterprise distribution ensures adoption. The AWS-specific capabilities create a defensible niche.”
“Next.js defines how modern web apps are built. Server Components and AI SDK integration make it the platform for AI web apps.”
