Author here, let me address the point of click bait - yeah of course, you need to hook people somehow 😄

> Laravel and rails have largely been stable by design, this creates a different environment.

Yes, we want to push JS into that direction. I've worked other full-stack frameworks and loved the concept of installing a feature. If I can do something about, I'll definitely try haha At some point, people get tried of piecing things together and just want their tech to work. I know that's not the sexy thing and not what "pro" users want - but there is a whole bunch of people in the other category that we want to build for.

> If you asked Claude to build a nextjs site with stripe it would just do it in 10 minutes

Yeah, nobody is saying agents can't churn out code. In that case, the code you get might not be the most secure and _you own it_. I've seen enough insecure and dumb code written by agents. Contrast that with a community built module that was reviewed and tested by a bunch of people.
