Which side are you? Javascript or Typescript

If you just want to try frontend, not trying to get a job there are these frameworks you should try:

  • Solidjs (love it so far) for a web application so SPA with separate backends
  • htmx to have a decently interactive website, it can be integrated with any webserver
  • astro for generating static sites

And i think everyone should use either Typescript or JSDoc for any bigger application.

Svelte is a happy middle ground between vue/react and SolidJS which is maybe too bleeding edge still

Agreed on the svelte part.

But I think solidjs has a real chance of taking over React, because its similar, meaning JSX and hooks, but without the footguns. After using React, its so much cleaner and easier to work with, i cannot recommend it enough.

Thanks for recommending it, it does look really nice. I'll definitely check it out when a fitting project comes along.
