"Trendy" stack? Languages and frameworks come and go, but that's because they bring something new to the programming mainstream. Dismissing the new as merely "trendy" hugely misguided. (I wouldn't want to write software in a world where we're stuck writing DOS programs in C!)
Good programmers (ones that I'd like to work with, anyway) are always reaching outside their comfort zone. Try to dismiss those doubts about the new stuff, and keep up the good work! You'll thank yourself later.

I guess that is a pretty important facet of my question. I'm all about exploring and learning new things, but does that have a place when building a product?
