Our recommendation

When to choose it

Choose Next.js when server rendering or server routes are a real requirement. For a frontend that only calls an existing API, start with Vite instead.

A good fit for

  • A React app needing request-time server behavior
  • A project combining server and browser code

Choose something else when

Choose Vite when static frontend output and an independent backend are enough.

Watch out for

  • Server and browser code have different credential and execution boundaries.
  • Select a host and adapter that support the features you use; a static export cannot preserve every server feature.

How costs work

Framework tooling; hosting and backend costs are separate

Choose the production runtime before estimating infrastructure. The framework is not a database or hosting account.

Check current official terms and pricing ↗

This is a pricing model, not a monthly quote. Check your region, intended usage and current plan before buying.

What connects to it

  • React
  • Framework-compatible hosting such as Vercel

These are technical connections you can configure. Selecting a card creates no accounts or resources.
