Reviewer scorecard
“Server Components, streaming, and the App Router represent the future of React. The Vercel deployment experience is unmatched.”
“Still the best API development environment. Postbot generating tests from your API schema saves hours. Collections shared across teams are essential.”
“Some complexity with the App Router learning curve, but it's the most complete full-stack React framework.”
“It has gotten bloated over the years but the core functionality is unmatched. The AI features are genuinely useful, not just checkbox items.”
“Next.js defines how modern web apps are built. Server Components and AI SDK integration make it the platform for AI web apps.”
“In an era of AI agents that can call APIs directly, do we still need a GUI for API testing? The future might be AI testing APIs autonomously.”
