  5. Gatsby

    React-based framework with performance, scalability, and security built in.

    Project mention: React Server Components without Next.js - what are the real alternatives today? | dev.to | 2026-02-03

    Gatsby supports React Server Components in its SSR mode. The implementation is stable, but the scope is narrow. Gatsby primarily targets content-heavy and hybrid static use cases. While RSC can be used for dynamic server rendering, the framework is not optimized for deeply interactive applications built around server components. For certain classes of sites, this is acceptable. For general-purpose applications, it is limiting.

  12. usehooks

    A collection of modern, server-safe React hooks – from the ui.dev team

    Project mention: NodeJS Fundamentals: lexical scope | dev.to | 2025-06-21

    The examples above demonstrate reusable patterns. For React hooks, consider using libraries like use-hooks (https://usehooks.com/) for pre-built, optimized hooks. For module-level privacy, ES Modules are the standard. Bundlers like Webpack, Parcel, or Rollup handle module resolution and scope management. TypeScript enhances lexical scope understanding through static typing and improved code analysis.

    Project mention: Adding Giscus Comments to Next.js Blog Pages | dev.to | 2026-03-05
