This post comes at a great time. I've been looking into what the "perfect" stack would be for me (I'm OK with Python but haven't done any frontend work).

Is anyone actually using FastAPI in a commercial, large scale app? Would you prefer using...say Django or Flask + Gevent (since they're more mature) over FastAPI?

I recently found this thread[1] about FastAPI. It's somewhat old now but reviews are mixed. I'm wondering if the landscape has improved now. Additionally, OP is using NextJS for the frontend and even that isn't without complaints[2]. What's odd for me is that the React website also asks you to pick between either Next.js or Remix[3].
