Comparing frontend frameworks with backend frameworks seems really odd to me. It takes a lot less time to build a JS framework. They do a lot less. This isn't to say frontend is easier or whatever. But they really do a lot less. That is why they're so many really good frontend frameworks. It's also a lot easier to rewrite your frontend than it is your backend. While backend there is so much to build that you really need to invest in it.
Every backend lanaguage has one or two really good frameworks. Simply because the cost of replacement is so high and the cost of developing a new one is so high, it just makes sense to invest in the one you're using. Sadly, this means just investing in hiring more people and not in actually improving it which GitHub/Microsoft is doing.
- rimliu 4y agoJS is not only for frontend anymore. Alas.
- that_guy_iain 4y agoYea and new backend frameworks pop up every day. Wait, they don't. They were clearly talking about frontend frameworks.
- shortrounddev 4y agoI've seen quite a few backend frameworks, but they're usually all based on express
- whimsicalism 4y agoUnsure why you were downvoted, you're almost certainly correct.
