Does not meet WP:GNG.

Source review:

[1], appears to be a crowdsourced site, not reliable
[2] largely just an interview with one of the subject's creators, not independent
[3] company website
[4] unclear whether this should be considered independent or not, as the author is a Google employee, although they claim to have no direct connection to this project.
[5], [6], [7], [8] Routine coverage of software updates that look like thinly veiled press releases
[9] How-to that mentions Next.js but isn't significant coverage

Searching online I was able to find similar routine coverage, but no significant independent analysis. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 20:26, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Next.js is a fast-growing framework with a medium-to-high number of users,[10] being used (and financed!) by major high-traffic sites. That volume and visibility has to leave some trace in the newsphere; this is not your run-of-the-mill obscure library with little support from unknow authors. Vercel and Next.js have been noticed by Forbes,[11] german tech site t3n, [12][13] and other independent sources with some technical or contextual analysis. [14] [15]

Also I find trouble in nominator's argument that an interview with the author is not independent coverage. That would be the case if the interview was published by a media source controlled by the same or a connected company, but I don't see how that's the case with StackOverflow. An interview published by a third party is subject to independent editorial control, and provides evidence that the topic has been found interesting enough by an independent publisher to the point of giving it significant coverage in their website.

speedy keep, You forgot Nuxt.js which is based on Next and has less user share, but there's also AngularJS. I think the article is notable according to WP:NSOFT, with just those referencs supplied above. The references the article makes isn't a good reason to delete it, we can find others. Deleting the article would be unacceptable, at most Next.js could be merged into React (web framework) and Nuxt.js could be merged into Vue.js (AngularJS is definitely notable). This brings up a whole list of problems, though, and we would probably need to create a new page titled List of Node.js frameworks. Footlessmouse (talk) 09:33, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

edit vote to speedy keep - subject of multiple independent published and printed instruction books as per 3rd notability option on WP:NSOFT. See Google Books results above; here are a couple, which suffice, on their own, to establish notability.^[1]^[2]^[3] Footlessmouse (talk) 09:53, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
