nobody mentioned MEAN stack? I don't really like the M(mongodb) part though, looking for a backend framework and checking nodejs/express now, something like: Vuejs + Express + NodeJS + someDatabase

No love for Django? Django/Postgres

I used Django a few years back for a large project that involved facility management. It was a breeze to work with. The Django Admin functionality alone saved us weeks of work.

That was version with 1.3! I wonder what the current state of the framework is. I need to get back into writing Python and using Django

ASP.NET Core is a lean and composable framework for building web and cloud applications. ASP.NET Core is fully open source and available on GitHub. ASP.NET Core is available on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

I'm excited about the future of .net core on linux but I'm waiting to hear some success stories. Have you built something significant with it you can point to? This is not snark - I'd really love to hear about it.

Not really, at this point of time I just love that it's now possible to write a code, run and debug my project in both of Windows and Mac OS, that's a huge step forward.

I'd like to throw in ArangoDB (multi-model NoSQL database) which I switched to after RethinkDB was shut down.

Phoenix/Elixir/Vue.js/Postgresql is a very strong/efficient stack IMO these days.

Do you use Vue.js with Phoenix Channels? I've been very curious how one would integrate a javascript framework on top of Phoenix.

I'm in the middle of a project that uses.NET Core. It's been great so far but Microsoft is in the middle of changing the tooling for it, which is a major pain point right now. They are essentially changing the project file format that defines dependencies and build options, and SDK tools and IDEs don't all support both formats yet.

.NET Core has almost all of the features of the full .NET framework and C# is a pleasure to work with. My team is very productive and we are able to iterate very quickly. Since it is a compiled language, most errors are caught at build time.

Deploying is another pain point. You have to install the framework on Linux and ship all of your dependencies. They make it easy with the `dotnet publish` command. I'm excited for .NET Native which will package everything into a binary.

Laravel, Nginx, PHP 7.0 and Postgres/MySQL.

I used Laravel for some projects that deal a few users. Where I work, we are reviewing different stacks for a project that will deal with a bigger quantity of users and I would really like to use Laravel, does Laravel have some performance issues or similar stuff when dealing with lot of users?

Do you experience any obstacles with data providers implementation in .NET Core? I heard that they ported SQLDataProvider only.

How it feels to learn JavaScript in 2016 https://hackernoon.com/how-it-feels-to-learn-javascript-in-2... HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12634577

That article is a sarcastic joke about JS frameworks. I would not recommend it as a learning resource.

Sarcasm and satire are very powerful weapons in the persuasive writer's arsenal.
