What Qwik is

It uses JavaScript and TypeScript and supports hybrid rendering, so developers can work with more than one rendering mode in a single framework.

The framework is free to use, with a free plan, and its license model is open source. For teams choosing a framework, the key points are its full-stack scope, JavaScript and TypeScript languages, hybrid rendering, and self-hosted deployment target. Its listed platform is web.
