Why We Build Everything on Next.js
Our tech stack is deliberately boring. Here is why that is a feature, not a bug.
Clients occasionally ask why we do not use whatever framework is trending this week. The answer is simple: we optimise for your success, not our novelty.
Next.js is not the newest or the flashiest. It is stable, well-documented, and backed by a company that is not going anywhere. When we hand off a project, you can find developers to maintain it. You can find answers to questions. You can build on what we started.
The case for boring technology
Every technical choice involves tradeoffs. Cutting-edge frameworks trade stability for features. They trade documentation for novelty. They trade hiring pool for bragging rights.
The best technology choice is usually the one that will cause you the fewest problems in two years.
We have seen too many startups get burned by building on whatever was hot when they started. Two years later, the framework is abandoned, the original developers have moved on, and the codebase is unmaintainable.
What this means in practice
- Server components for performance without complexity.
- Vercel deployment for zero-config hosting that scales.
- TypeScript throughout for fewer bugs and better tooling.
- Tailwind for consistent, maintainable styling.
- Supabase for authentication and data that just works.
This stack is not exciting. It is reliable. And reliable is what your business actually needs.
