SMRTR summary

Next.js, an open-source web development framework by Vercel, is criticized for its lack of transparency and portability. It lacks adapters for various deployment targets, has no official serverless support, and contains Vercel-specific code. These issues hinder full support from other providers. A recent security incident raised concerns about Vercel's vulnerability management and communication. This situation questions the balance between open-source principles and commercial interests in Next.js development.
