Ask HN: What's the time-tested web framework for 2018?

Ideally, I'm looking for a popular framework with static typing.

My hesitation with almost anything Typescript is the fleeting pace of new frameworks, versions and deprecation of old ones-- React Router is already v4 for instance. How many npm packages will still be around and supported in 2 years?

Java/Spring? Maybe. But now that Oracle has announced what amounts to pretty quick deprecation for JDK 8 and beyond, its stability is no longer beyond reproach.
