I worked on a couple of Next.js projects and all of them turned into a code mess. I have more than a year of experience with Next.js as a senior developer and I still don't know what this frameworks was built for? Is it for a blog post or a full blown app? It started as a framework for a simple blog, but now it turned into this Frankenstein monster and I despise working with it. This is all the sad side effect of JavaScript ecosystem not having a good backend framework like Ruby on Rails or Django. It's a shit show.

If you adopt a basic folder structure to place models, interfaces, routes and what not in, I don't see how things can become super messy. Using Typescript can help to more easily navigate the code base.
