But why Redwood rather than some other framework? (I'm just interested in learning what opinions people have on here)
Core team member here. Several reasons:
1. Redwood tightly integrates more of what you'll need as your app evolves: Storybook, Jest, Auth, Deploy, Logging, and a lot more.
2. A first class GraphQL experience so you can start from day one with the idea that you'll have multiple frontend clients (web, mobile, desktop, CLI, etc) so you only build your backend once.
3. Declarative data fetching with "cells" that make using that GraphQL backend super simple.
4. A community of builders and startup founders intent on helping each other succeed.
5. An amazing tutorial and set of documentation.
Speaking of the tutorial, that's the best way to get started if you're curious to see how Redwood feels in action!
