Well there's your problem. If you were to `npx create-next-app` you'd have most of what you want already done for you.
- ankit70 5y agoI think AdonisJS comes quite close to overcome this.
- proxyon 5y agoYep. OP is comparing apples to oranges.
- regularfry 5y agoYes, but imagine you've existed on a diet of nothing but oranges for your entire life, frankly you're bored of having to peel the damn things and the bitter pith left behind is, truthfully, frustrating as hell. Someone throws you an apple - what is this food that you can eat without peeling? Think of all the time you can save not peeling fruit! Surely you must tell all your orange-peeling friends the good news?
