Express is still popular, but a lot projects these days use a full-stack framework like Next.js, SvelteKit, etc.
Fastify, NestJS (bleh), Koa, Hono are the modern replacements for express, none of them have caught on as a standard though. My personal favorite for small projects is Polka (https://github.com/lukeed/polka), when I'm not using Go instead.
