> This is not the case with SPAs, LOL. I'm yet to see a single SPA which can tolerate a bad network. You certainly have better tools to do it, but it still takes a ton of effort and nobody does it. So it ends up failing in worse way

Probably you're not aware yet that there are also "modern ways" to do server side templates/html. Nowadays you have things such as Unpoly, Htmx, Hotwire, Livewire, etc which can be added incrementaly to any traditional M

Yes, as long as you have tons of free time, and will to invest it in learning these systems tools. For me this would be madness, I want the computer to achieve something, not to spend my days tweaking it.

How is it "trying to like it" when you try to replace everything and re arrange the entire OS to your liking? I think they just tried to convert it to Linux for 1 year and that didn't work, which as I said, that's expect

A full stack framework on any language you prefer, such as Laravel or Rails. Interactive parts with hotwire/livewire or Unpoly. Definitely not a bare bones one (express, flask, Sinatra, etc...) And absolutely NOT an SPA. Deploy on hero

Are you comparing the cost of learning kubernetes to the cost of learning heroku? Or even AppEngine? Those are totally different leagues. Also, with heroku, AppEngine, etc you have tons of documentation (official and unofficial) and resourc

100% this. I've always said that the ecosystem, the tooling, the editor support, the libraries, the frameworks and the availability of people to hire are far more important than the language. For example it irks me when people say they

Django is good only if you're building a backend. Its frontend solution is a 90s monty python's joke. Rails, Laravel, etc are real full stack frameworks.

Laravel, and the TALL stack. Maybe also Unpoly for certain parts. I'd avoid SPAs as hell. Just a total waste of my time/money and end user's resources. If employer wants to use his money for SPAs, I'd build them happily.
