I chose Next.js because it gives the perfect balance of performance, developer experience, and flexibility. Features like file-based routing, API routes, and built-in optimizations make it incredibly easy to build production-ready apps. I also appreciate the strong community, great documentation, and the fact that it scales well for startups and personal projects. Compared to other tools, Next.js feels faster to build with and more reliable for real-world deployments.
