I am a solo amateur developer for 20 years. I mainly build tools for home automation, my own dashboard that gathers data from calendars, buses, meteo etc. and displays this on the living room for the famil, and more recently a simple smart lock.
Most of these are back + front.
After a lot of experiments, I ended up with the idea that once I know a hammer (framework, language) I will see everything as a nail.
So I went for
Front: Quasar (quasar.dev). It is based on Vue and recently also on Vite. Use that combo. Also Typescript.
Pros: very complete, has everything you need for an average front, including PWA or of the box. Very good documentation.
Cons: the community is meh. Rarely someone respond and the SO tag does not have a lot of traction.
Back: I used to be pure Python, now I try to do everything in Go (after an initial strong dislike I learned to like the down to earth code)
Infra: everything goes into a docker container, this makes dev and deployment sooooo much easier.
