I write code, overengineer simple problems, and occasionally ship something useful by accident. Currently arguing with compilers, AI agents, and my own architectural decisions.
I do love PHP. It is the best programing language ever.
So, i gonna write down some quotes from PHP's creator.
PHP is about as exciting as your toothbrush. You use it every day, it does the job, it is a simple tool, so what? Who would want to read about toothbrushes?
I've never thought of PHP as more than a simple tool to solve problems.
PHP is rarely the bottleneck.
PHP is a trash

Your landing page is not trustworthy. Why should i trust you? You basically are using shadcn UI. The demo video is about other project. Too many shadows. I don't even know what you are trying to sell in your landing page. This page is stunning in the bad way. Where can i get the boilerplate? Who should buy your boilerplate? Who is your persona? Does it uses AI?
The fact is that Next.js is becoming complicated. It's not simple anymore. Now you have to use a app folder with "page.js" to make it as a route. It's not file system routing anymore. It's folder router.
Besides that, app folder is slower than pages.
The amount of complexity to build a simple react app is overwhelming. You need to know the conventions created by a so called convention free framework.
I've been building nextjs apps for 1+ years, but for the next one I will be looking for an alternative, maybe Remix, Redwood, I don't know.
Vercel became Apple. They really like to make great presentations, and events, to their releases, but, instead of increasing the developer experience, they are decreasing it. The only good thing about vercel, as said by the author, is the Next.js deploy, that is really easy to do.
