    VERCEL
    I love using Next.js — it's my go-to framework for new personal projects and work projects. The local development environment is quick, easy, and fun to use. The framework it uses, which puts an API that runs node in your pages subdirectory, is absolutely genius. No more middleware! It's good for quick projects and big projects alike. I wouldn't use Next.js if I did not want to heavily rely on serverless tech.

    We haven't found any scenarios where it's not appropriate, but it's well-suited for anyone wanting a stable PHP environment where Zend does the heavy lifting and you don't have to babysit the environment constantly.

    Zend is the easiest PHP web server I've used, especially, again, for daily monitoring.

    Next.js takes the best parts of React and applies them to a full-stack dev environment. With a built-in serverless API, it's easy to boot up a web application in under an hour. With easy integration with tools like Firebase, Supabase, Stripe, and countless others, Next.js is a perfect tool for getting your idea out into the real world.

    The Zend Studio PHP IDE is great and has great integration with the Zend Server Platform.

    • ROI - saved a ton of time not having to configure vanilla PHP.
    • Zend framework is easily available and makes many programming tasks much easier.
    • Day to day time savings since Zend essentially monitors itself.
