Ask HN: Alternatives to Server-Side JavaScript/Node.js?
Preferably highly performant and well supported by a community or corporation.
- Akronymus 4y agoWhat is your goal? Do you want to have something that transpiles to JS for clients? Do you just mean a webserver? WHAT problem are you trying to solve? I think you may be running into the xy problem https://xyproblem.info/ https://xyproblem.info/
- Dracophoenix 4y agoYes this is for a webserver. But it's more of a personal research project. I'm not looking for something that transpiles into JS. I'm looking for a complete replacement for JS. I've looked through and played with Blazor/C#, Django & Pyramid/Python, Rust, and Julia. Performance aside, feature-set and maturity are concerns I have. So, any first-hand information on what the landscape is like would be helpful. I'd also be fine with reccommendations for other languages and frameworks. Ideally, what I'd find is a turn-key replacement for everything that Node does while being more performant, but there's a fat chance that something like that exists.
- Akronymus 4y agoPersonally, I enjoy working with the SAFE stack [1]. Altough, it may not be quite what you are looking for. Other than taht, ASP.net may very well be a good choice, definitely more traditional. [2] Or the tried and tested LAMP/LEMP stacks may very well be good choices for you. I must admit though, that my knowledge in this area is rather limited, so give a lot of scrutiny to my suggestions.
