Quick Start
Compare Two Technologies
Compare React vs Vue for a SaaS dashboard.
Priorities: developer productivity (40%), ecosystem (30%), performance (30%).
Calculate TCO
Calculate 5-year TCO for Next.js on Vercel.
Team: 8 developers. Hosting: $2500/month. Growth: 40%/year.
Assess Migration
Evaluate migrating from Angular.js to React.
Codebase: 50,000 lines, 200 components. Team: 6 developers.
Input Formats
The evaluator accepts three input formats:
Text - Natural language queries
Compare PostgreSQL vs MongoDB for our e-commerce platform.
YAML - Structured input for automation
comparison:
technologies: ["React", "Vue"]
use_case: "SaaS dashboard"
weights:
ecosystem: 30
performance: 25
developer_experience: 45
JSON - Programmatic integration
{
"technologies": ["React", "Vue"],
"use_case": "SaaS dashboard"
}

When to Use
- Comparing frontend/backend frameworks for new projects
- Evaluating cloud providers for specific workloads
- Planning technology migrations with risk assessment
- Calculating build vs. buy decisions with TCO
- Assessing open-source library viability
When NOT to Use
- Trivial decisions between similar tools (use team preference)
- Mandated technology choices (decision already made)
- Emergency production issues (use monitoring tools)
