Astro vs Next.js: choose for the project, not the logo
A practical framework comparison focused on project needs rather than popularity.
Astro
Astro is a strong fit for content-heavy sites where most pages can be delivered as lightweight HTML and only selected components need client-side JavaScript.
Next.js
Next.js is designed for richer React applications and offers a large ecosystem for server rendering, routing and application logic.
Performance is architectural
Framework choice alone does not guarantee a fast site. Images, scripts, third-party services, caching and content structure often matter more.
The useful question
Ask what the site must do, how often it changes, who will maintain it and which interactions really require application-level complexity.
