When would you all choose ct3a over astro?

What are the qualifiers (other than just liking it better) would you say you'd use ct3a over astro? is it when you need a more robust back end? auth? Just curious. I have a couple projects I want to do and i've not used astro yet, but ct3a might be overkill.

isn't Astro essentially a frontend-only framework? so if you either don't need a backend or already have one, it's a great choice

You can run Astro in server mode, giving you api routes as in most other full stack frameworks. The lines are super blurry since both Astro and Next can do so much. One concrete deal-breaker would be React. If you don't need/want React, don't use Next. Otherwise both frameworks have a lot of feauture parity, it's more about what technologies you want to emphasize. More static experiences -> Astro. Longer session application like experiences -> Next/T3
