Several years ago, another State of JS survey put Astro on my radar.
I decided to try it and after spending a few hours with it, I fell in love with the technology. It was almost love at first sight! Suddenly, I saw myself rebuilding my website, administrative tools, and other projects with Astro. Now, I can say that Astro is my favourite framework by far.
JavaScript is a dynamic and exciting ecosystem continually growing with many libraries and frameworks. From reusable components to client-side, server-side, and static solutions, there are countless ways to achieve your goals using Vanilla JavaScript, community packages, libraries, or frameworks—each offering new opportunities for innovation. Of course, it can feel overwhelming, but this diversity makes JavaScript powerful, giving you anywhere from one to hundreds of clever ways to succeed.
Don’t be afraid to dive in and experiment with different tools—whether it’s Vitest or Jest, React or Solid, Node or Deno, Next.js or Astro – or something entirely new like Brisa.
Stay curious, as no other language offers the community, flexibility, and creativity that JavaScript does!
