top 10 frameworks 2025

I saw a list of “10 JS frameworks in 2025” on Reddit and decided to look into some of them.

• Drizzle (ORM) - easy enough to set up. Seems relatively straightforward and intuitive
• Biome (linter/formatter, Prettier replacement) - TODO
• Bun (all-in-one toolkit thingamabob) - finally got around to trying it. Don’t know what the advantages are over NodeJS, though. Supposedly faster, I wouldn’t know. Supports Typescript out of the box, but you can do that with the latest Node version as well (both just do type-stripping)
• Deno (runtime) - TODO
• Zustand (state management) - TODO
• Hono (web framework) - like express but with some QOL stuff? You can write code in a .jsx file and send JSX as a response. Is nice
• HTMX (reactivity with server-sent HTML fragments? idk) - TODO
• Shadcn (styled components) - TODO
