- Django for backend - NextJS for frontend Best choice ever made - Django is the best 0-1 framework for CRUD apps that do not have low latency requirement. Django has Admin panel, scaffolding, routing, test framework, tons of resources - NextJS is lovely to work with, good caching system Both frameworks have ton of documentation, resources, support, which is something I care for a lot. I'm also an early contributor of Django so I know some internals relatively well.

Do you use Vercel? How have the costs been, if so?

Nope, we use Render.com Reason: - server cost doesn't scale with volume - little to no vendor lock in (we can move where we want) - can run any programming language and framework (we use Python) - we run long standing processes (like gRPC to listen to live Farcaster events). That is far more cost effective and possible outside of Serverless.

Do you still get the various SSR benefits that Next provides which I understand are somewhat coupled to Vercel?
