We're currently working on our stand-alone politics site, (that you can preview at https://manifold.markets/elections) using the newer App Router from Nextjs. This is different from our main site, that uses the Pages Router. From my experience the app router is more feature-ful but slightly higher friction to develop new pages. It's also less IDE friendly: every file is named either page.tsx or layout.tsx! So, are we doing the right thing or not? I will poll the other manifold devs in 4 months and ask them to compare their experience working on the politics site vs the main site and ask them if they consider the extra work of switching worth it.
