Systematic exploration of 14+ modern frameworks and runtimes across web, mobile, desktop, and server
A deliberate multi-year investment in framework breadth — each framework taken past hello-world to something functional. The goal was to understand not just API surface but architectural philosophy: how each framework thinks about routing, reactivity, server/client boundary, and developer experience. This sandbox is the foundation behind being able to choose the right tool for each production project rather than defaulting to the familiar one.
Projects span the full modern web and app stack: Astro and Remix on the web; SolidJS, SvelteKit, Vue/Nuxt for reactivity-first SPAs; TanStack Start and Hono for edge-first servers; Expo and Flutter for mobile; Tauri and Electron for desktop; Elysia and Bun for high-performance server runtimes; NestJS for enterprise patterns; Turborepo and Nx for monorepo tooling.
