The Future of Frontend Panel
summary
Panelists debate whether frontend is getting harder while showing concrete tradeoffs: Next.js server components and full‑stack frameworks simplify deployments but complicate runtime boundaries; toolchain realities include GitHub Copilot, Postman AI for API tests, Cloudinary for uploads and Prisma for types; serverless eases hosting yet breaks Cron and long‑running jobs; vendor lock‑in and observability are recurring risks; practical tips cover when to use low‑code for MVPs, scaffolded CRUD (Redwood/Rails style), and how mentorship or focused learning paths prevent burnout.
