Stimulus and Hotwire (on top of Laravel or any other decent batteries included framework). Not a single one of the many projects I’ve worked on in the last 10 years needed such a level of interactivity that it justified the trade offs of using react or any other frontend-heavy frameworks. I’ve seen entire CRUD spas that would have been built in 20% the time if we didn’t have to build a graphql api, figure outs authentication and permissions, integrate that with a custom validation setup, integrate all of the above with the translations systems, coordinate deploys or do forward compatible migrations, etc, etc. so much energy (and money) wasted.
