Javascript still needs its Rails/Django equivalent. Next.js has empowered a bunch of frontend devs to build fullstack applications, but there’s a ton of footguns and the flexibility still has people floundering in problems long-solved by other frameworks.

100%, I regularly take over SaaS projects in Nextjs and almost always push for rebuilding backend in Django. I'll keep doing that until there's an alternative with migrations, admin app, and customizable (but tightly integrated) auth. NextAuth sucks, JS ORMs suck, and the"web app frameworks" are all hugely immature.

Django is absolutely goated for SaaS projects. We used at last startup I worked at and our company's main internal process was quite literally built on Django admin for the first few years.

Phoenix needs the equivalent of Django admin. Superpower.

Wish I had a reason to write Elixir/Phoenix. I think it's interesting when teams pick to use it. Talent pool is small, but those people LOVE writing elixir and will work anywhere happily that lets them. Not as big of selection of community packages, so if you do something new, you gotta be ready to write yourself.

If you're ever bored, we're mostly Elixir/Phoenix here at my team ;)
