Interestingly besides typescript, javascript in 2025 is still super fragmeneted but by a bunch of well-polished tools that all do approximately the same thing. esbuild/vite(rollup)/trubopack(swc), prettier/biome/oxc, npm/bun/pnpm/yarn, bun/node/deno/worker-runtimes

For me it is easy, Spring/Quarkus/ASP.NET, if it has to be a JavaScript framework, Next.js the way Vercel intended.

Anything whatever the FE team feels like using, and the less I know about it, the better.

Next.js has been called infuriating here recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45099922

I know, search for my nickname and you'll get my point of view across several comments.

It's just people refusing to use new tools. Prettier is so much slower than any Rust formatter, it's painful. `yarn install` takes forever. Why not switch to Bun? It's 5 minutes.

I interviewed at one company a few months ago and they said they don't use TypeScript because the compiler gets in their way, jesus chirst.

The fact that you even didn't mention webpack, once a champion, is especially sad.

Doesn't Next.js still use webpack?
