Next.js vs. Wasp: Best Path Forward for a New Developer?

Hi everyone,

I've just finished learning the basics of React and I also have experience with Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and Mongoose. My next plan was to start learning Next.js due to its server-side rendering (SSR) capabilities, which can improve performance and SEO.

Recently, I came across an Open SaaS template that uses Wasp. I'm really intrigued by how quickly I can set up features like authentication and other functionalities using Wasp. Now, I'm at a crossroads trying to decide what to learn and use next for building applications.

I have few questions:
Should I continue exploring Wasp and the Open SaaS template, or should I proceed with learning Next.js?
Is it possible to integrate Next.js with the Open SaaS template and Wasp? If so, how can I go about it?
What are the potential benefits and challenges of combining these technologies?

I appreciate any insights or advice you can provide. Thanks in advance!
