summary
Case study shows a CSV-driven generator that produced thousands of static websites, built with React Static after passing on Gatsby and Next.js, and later would need rewriting once Next.js dominance appears; concrete pain points include an AWS bill spike, scaling from 1,000 to 100,000 users, and GDPR/compliance fines; recommended actions are incremental cleanup, the 20% rule for tech debt, and treating every tech task as a visible, plannable item rather than a one-off rewrite.
