    1. Lots of next.js complaints today. I've definitely become more pro-vanilla HTML/CSS/JS and pro-avoiding frameworks where possible. But Next is super useful for what we do at Monzo, where we have a massive customer service platform with loads of sponsoring teams contributing...

    This is an app where we can dictate the browser and require good internet speeds (as they are staff). UX issues that we do have on the app come down to too many API calls, not enough caching, and a historical lack of design input.

            tl;dr: you might not need a framework yes, but sometimes it really helps
