I've started with Web Development in 2013. Back then Node.js was still in 0.x versions, Electron was basically non-existent and Django looked ten-times better than anything PHP was able to offer. I've dabbled with some PHP/Node/Java framework tutorials since then but haven't really had reason to fully switch.
But if I started today I would probably try to find some framework to do everything in JS/TS.
- padthai 6y agoI started web dev in 2012 with a MEAN stack. Now I work with a LAMP stack. I deal with far less migrations and dead packages, but that's probably because Node.js was not very mature back then. The real question is why someone like me should pitch JavaScript to my Django/Flask shop instead of technology with clearer competitive advantages: Elixir/Rust/whatever. If I want better CPU usage I can get halfway there it with FastAPI and other Python frameworks.
