That's the objective of Blitz.js [1]: build on top of Next.js for a rails-like experience, but made by an independent open-source community.

Pretty slick!

I thought about making "higher level" frameworks by combining "lower level" frameworks myself.

How did you do it? I mean, it's not just wrapping the libraries, but also the CLIs.

This is very cool.

One suggestion - I highly recommend you mention that you're leveraging nextjs. There is a certain buy-in that nextjs has that would be hard elsewhere.

In fact I would say that I would totally pay an annual subscription for this (even on "starter marketplaces" like themeforest).

It's not my project, you can probably talk about it with its creator: https://twitter.com/flybayer
