That’s the problem, it is not “technically” a framework, it’s just simple not. People that refer it as a framework heard it from somewhere and it confuses people as to what React actually is. NextJs is a framework that uses React library. This is how it should be informed. I guarantee newbies are getting confused as to…”well, should I use NextJs or React and what’s the difference?”

And Nuxt js is a framework that uses the Vue.js framework

Well, I think you failed to read correctly, I said NextJs not Nuxtjs.

I said Nuxt.js :). Just saying that you also can make frameworks on top of frameworks like Vue.js and not only on top of libraries like React.js
