Comment on Show HN: Mastra 1.0, open-source JavaScript agent framework from the Gatsby devsparent

Comments

Thanks for the feedback. We hear from a lot of devs with fond memories of Gatsby but if it cuts the opposite way for you that's also fair!

Most of us spent a lot of the last decade building Gatsby so it's sort of a personal identity/pride thing for us more than a marketing thing. But maybe we need to keep our identity small! Either way, thanks for saying something, worth thinking about.

I don’t mean to be provocative, but given that it’s in the title of the post, of course I checked whether the marketing page for this framework was built with Gatsby - seems like it’s Next.js though. Any reason Gatsby was not chosen if it’s a point of pride?

My guess is Gatsby wasn't chosen because it was a bad framework that is practically deprecated [1]
