Five deploy paths, real cost-per-10k-executions math, an honest compare-side against Trigger.dev v4, the SSPL license question, and where v1.34 still bites.
ShipGarden's hands-on June 2026 review of Refine v5 (@refinedev/core@5.0.12) as the open-source React framework for an admin or internal-tool starter.

ShipGarden's hands-on review of CopilotKit as a Next.js agent UI in June 2026. The setup walkthrough, the four comparison axes, three deploy paths, and where it loses to Vercel ai-chatbot and Mastra.
