And now the new shinny... I'm surprised about Ruby on Rails still being up there. I code ruby, awesome. I thought the server side shinny would have been node.

  Node is shiny, but my impression is while most of the pieces are there for good services, a solid obvious solution for your standard crud app doesn't feel like its present. I've used Django and Play and assume Ruby on Rails is similar -- does Node.js sport something as (relatively) polished as those?

    There aren't really a lot of Node frameworks out there I believe (unless one counts libraries such as express or hapi I guess)...probably the same reason why we don't see Go or Rust in those charts is my guess.

      Speaking off the cuff, Rust doesn't have the market share. Node feels like it's still evolving at such a rapid pace that any framework is going to feel tired within a couple of years, if that. Revel is the closest thing to Rails in Go, I think it can be frustrating to work with, but there aren't a lot of strong options in contention for Golang. It seems possible that this which will lead to splintering in libraries/frameworks because it's all statically typed. Node has the most potential here, I'd say, but it's possible that someone has or will create a very strong service framework for golang with enough abstraction that it can have a web framework embedded. But I'm not sure.
