Using Next.js as a static generator for all my smaller web sites now it makes things more easy and lots of painfull extra stuff is done by Next.js! Also React components are more easy to work with like I only got a small part of 'html' not spend hours scrolling over 1000s of html code trying to find that comment in one ocean of div tags, I can repeat and reuse stuff and things like sass or tailwind are really easy to setup and use!

Plus things such as automatic image optimisation, incremental static regeneration make your life alot more easier. Imagine coding a framework just to do what a framework like NextJS can get it done in seconds.

Javascript ecosystem matters alot.
