Tools change. Fundamentals don’t. If you understand problem-solving, clean code, and how the web works, you can pick up any new framework faster.

I keep seeing Next.js everywhere YouTube breakdowns TikTok tutorials X threads It’s fast, flexible, and production-ready But is it really replacing MERN Or just another tool in the stack?
