State of JavaScript 2025

Meta-Frameworks

Framework-uri axate pe randarea și servirea aplicației

We're highlighting interesting features or libraries we think you should know about.

Library Highlight: Astro

Astro has taken a good look at what other static site generators were doing, taken the best ideas, and discarded the rest. The result is a framework that both feels simple and powerful at the same time, and has the top satisfaction ranking as a result.

And having recently joined forces with Cloudflare, it's exciting to think about what the Astro team will show us next!

Meta-Frameworks Ratios Over Time

Next.js keeps on gaining ground and dominating the meta-framework category, yet paradoxically, it's also losing satisfaction at the exact same time. This is not a good sign, as its satisfaction ratio now has a 39% gap with leader Astro.

And one look at the Awareness chart is enough to see how dangerous of a competitor Astro really is, going from virtually unknown to serious contender in the span of just a few years.

Alte Meta-Frameworks

Many respondents questioned the absence of TanStack Start from the options offered in the survey. The reason is simply that at survey launch, the framework wasn't out of beta yet!

Thankfully respondents were able to rectify this omission by mentioning the project in the “other meta-frameworks” field, a clear signal that TanStack Start is going to make a very strong entrance in next year's ”official” rankings.

We asked members of the JavaScript community to share their “pick of the year”

My 2025 Pick: Web Origami

Describing itself as “a concise dialect of JavaScript expressions”, Web Origami is a project that hit its stride in 2025. It offers a remarkably intuitive way to transform data, build websites, and call JavaScript directly from the shell. It connects expressions and paths to enable powerful, intuitive data manipulation.

Number of Items

Respondents haven't used that many different meta-frameworks, which is to be expected in a category still dominated by just one or two solutions.

Satisfacția față de meta-framework-uri

It will be interesting to see if diminishing satisfaction with Next.js eventually translates into diminishing happiness overall, but so far at least that doesn't seem to be the case.

Puncte slabe ale meta-framework-urilor

By their nature, meta-frameworks straddle the gap between client and server, which leads to a lot of complex issues.

And while Next.js offers quite a few ways to address those issues, the downside of all that power is that its learning curve and overall developer experience can sometimes suffer.
