## What it is
Qwik is a TypeScript-based frontend web framework that delivers instant-loading web apps through resumability, skipping hydration entirely and lazy-loading JavaScript on demand. It includes Qwik City, a meta-framework providing file-based routing, SSR/SSG, loaders, and middleware, similar to Next.js for React.

## Use cases
- build instantly interactive websites with minimal JavaScript
- create SSR or statically generated sites that load fast on mobile
- build large complex web apps with consistent performance at scale
- migrate from React using familiar JSX and functional components
- deploy apps to edge platforms like Cloudflare, Vercel, or Netlify
- reduce hydration overhead in performance-critical applications

## When to choose
- page load speed and startup performance are top priorities
- you want SSR/SSG without hydration costs
- you're building content sites, e-commerce, or apps served from the edge
- your team knows React/JSX and wants a similar developer experience

## When to avoid
- you need a mature, battle-tested ecosystem with a huge component library
- your team relies heavily on React-specific libraries
- you want a stable major version (v2 is in beta)
- you prefer conventional hydration-based frameworks like Next.js or Nuxt
