Other: the one you're most familiar with If you're starting up a new project, choosing the "best" framework vs the one you're most familiar with is going to make everything that much more difficult. You're going to learn something before you can build something? And build something more slowly because you're trying to learn something? My untrendy answer: Frontend: Backbone/Bootstrap Backend: Node DB: Postgres or Mongo If you don't know those things, then this isn't the right answer for you, but whenever I start up a new little project in my spare time and utilize Backbone, it's like a breath of fresh air, compared to most of the current popular frameworks and what we have to use at work.
