How good are you at hammering nails with a screwdriver? Tools are important. We have a more apropos saying in our industry: use the right tool for the job. Don't let your brain get fried by the 'poor workman' adage, it's talking about the difference between an expensive tool and a cheap tool of the same kind, not two tools of different kinds entirely.

- whstl 4mo agoAstro itself uses React. It can use other libraries with it too, or just plain HTML, but it’s not in the same space. React can’t work on the backend by itself without Astro, Next.js, etc, or some hand-made micro-framework.
