The Best Tech Stack for Web Developers

[@tarsierontherun]

I love the bravery of actually telling us what you think are the best tools.

[@SuboptimalEng]

This is still the best tech stack for getting started (in my opinion)!

[@lowkeygaming4716]

I started as a Python dev so when it comes to speed of development Flask is my first choice. Vue for frontend because React has a steeper learning curve to achieve something you can do with Vuejs . For backend I prefer SQL. The data validation and required structure it offers will make sure that you will less likely get a messy dataset in the long run

[@SuboptimalEng]

I think you made very reasonable decisions in picking your tech stack. Python + Flask is a really good combo as long as you don't mind learning context switching to JavaScript for the front-end.

[@lowkeygaming4716]

@@SuboptimalEng Yeah. I personally prefer to be backend dev because I suck in designing so I don't give my full efforts being good in frontend programming. Just to share, I just relearned vuejs few days ago (haven't use it for 2yrs) because I applied for a backend dev position which required me to create a mini web app (front and back) the backend was not a problem for me but got worried with the frontend. Luckily vuejs is so simple that it allows me to relearn all I need in just 1 day that's why I really love Vuejs

[@astronemir]

@@lowkeygaming4716 What did you use for re-learning VueJS, just the docs?

[@lowkeygaming4716]

@@astronemir no. I'm more of a visual learner so I watch here in KZbin. I just searched for vuejs crash course. The one that already includes vuex and vue-router. I watch the latest one from traversy then if there are some difference on the latest version of vue to the tutorial, I look for other tutorials to complement it and check the official docs. I learn faster that way.

As a software engineer in a Japanese company, spring boot and ruby on rails are the best backend. I'm sticking with what the enterprise always chooses. Plus I love anime!

Thanks Ilya!

[@JoaoZati]

I learn Flask, but fast api is growing in popularity, its is also a micro framework, but simple, flexible asynchronous and fast. So my stack right now is React, flask and mongo. But want to try fast api and django and sometimes use postgres

[@seyedmojtabahayatolgheib9853]

Thanks. I'm a Vue.js and Nuxt.js developer but I have a plan to learn React.js and then Node.js

[@MikeTheCeleb]

Hey thank you for this video! This really helped and will likely drive my decision with a coding bootcamp. I miraculously may have met my business partner while watching this video. 💯💯

[@SuboptimalEng]

That’s awesome to hear!

[@kelvinsajere191]

That stack is 🔥. However, I feel you can’t actually go wrong either way you decide. It comes down to what you like. I’ve used Vue, React, Tailwind, Vuetify, Bootstrap, AnTDesign, Postgres, MySQL, SQLite interchangeably in different projects, but I’ve only ever worked with Django for the backend even though I also can use rails and laravel. I for one, don’t get why people say using JavaScript for both backend and frontend is better than knowing more than one programming language. If you’ve understood how any programming language works really, it’s easy to pickup another one. Just find what suites you.

[@raianmr2843]

People who discourage using other languages are generally exclusively JS programmers, and there are tons on them. I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to webdev who hasn't even had a real job yet, and I'm already intermediate level in C++, Python, and JS. Tying your professional identity to a particular technology is like hardcoding a limit to your potential imo

[@kelvinsajere191]

@@raianmr2843 Yeah, I think understanding how other tech and languages work is really exciting. After this video, I looked into Node backend development with Express and I’ve got to say, it’s really a cool backend tech too. It was relatively easy for me grasp the concepts because i already am used to building APIs and I enjoy it more than the frontend. The Nosql mongodb is a nice shift from my traditional relational SQL databases. I’m already on my second project with Express and I can see myself using a different backend tech for building apps other than Django just because i enjoy working with it, not because I just want to use JS for the front and back.

[@gabrielbott4659]

i started out as a javascript dev and now i am both a typescript and python dev. I choose the MERN due to its popularity, now i'm finding out that i love the python web dev ecosystem better and i love writing SQL rather than using an ORM 🤣🤣

[@SuboptimalEng]

Raw SQL feels much more natural than using an ORM.

[@LearNwithMouLi]

What about the MERN stack does it have the same popularity as why you are continuously changing one to another developer

[@gabrielbott4659]

@@LearNwithMouLi My reason for changing from the MERN is that, there are a lot of backend server frameworks that comes to loaded features, Express is too minimalist same as flask(python web framework). I desire something that doesn’t require me configuring all the time, that’s why i use django and nestjs these days, and i especially love django because of the ability to have multiple apps in one project - Thus limiting the requirement for microservice architecture. Also i decided to train me with the IBM data analyst course, it deepen my knowledge in sql and writing raw queries. So yeah those are my reason for changing, if you’re looking for something that is in demand rn, i’d suggest you learning Go or Rust, these two languages are system languages like c++ and a lot of companies are trying to incorporate them into their backend applications.

[@Daisika]

[@shailmurtaza9082]

I'm surprised that you didn't mentioned PHP with Laravel which is the largest market share in web development. Also development time and scalability is also better than most of the frameworks with Laravel

[@noobzaebot]

Your explanation abaout Angular is very inaccurate. Angular has the latest version which is Angular 2+. It has been reinvented and completely is different from angular1. though performance wise is not as good as react, code organization is cleaner and features are all out of the box.

[@jboss1073]

" It has been reinvented and completely is different from angular1. " Then it's not "Angular" anymore and they're just coasting on the name.

I can't wrap my head around writing nodejs and mongo, and then using that with the react frontend. Is it as if I'm hitting an API? Having to write backend routes and all that gets me 😬

What about firebase as a database and/or backend?

[@SuboptimalEng]

If I remember correctly, Firebase allows you to store data directly from your frontend without the need for a backend. So Firebase can replace Node.js + MongoDB. It can be a good option to start off with Firebase if you are familiar with frontend development, but you should probably (at some point) build a backend with Node.js + MongoDB if you want to see how everything fits together.

[@kostaskoukos3932]

@@SuboptimalEng thank you, I am quite a beginner in web dev, also an irrelevant question: for an app with Vue that can be also on mobile would you recommend making a PWA, using Ionic or another option
