Reviewer scorecard
“Instant GraphQL API from a schema definition. Edge deployment and federation are well-designed.”
“Still the most used JS testing framework. Massive ecosystem of matchers, plugins, and documentation.”
“GraphQL is losing mindshare to tRPC and REST. Building a platform around GraphQL is a risky bet.”
“Vitest does everything Jest does faster with better ESM support. New projects should start with Vitest.”
“Edge-first GraphQL with AI gateway is an interesting combination. The gateway approach could be the differentiator.”
“Jest defined modern JS testing but Vitest is the future. The migration is happening steadily.”
