Meteor + React + MongoDB got eddtor.com really quick out of the door. But after 5+ years of maintaining my shipped products (I'm a freelancer, ME-JUST-ME kind of dev), my absolute happiness in customer service & maintanance was the most boring stack of all: PHP + HTML + JS + MySQL/MongoDB. Vanilla FTW.

We're not exactly a startup, but a small growing data science, analyst, and engineering team in a bigger company. You name it... but a typical data and web stack.

OS/Distros: FreeBSD and Linux (CoreOS and CentOS)

Languages: Python (Data Science) & Javascript (Front End)

Frameworks: Flask, Django, Angular, React, Bokeh, Tensorflow, Scikit-learn

Container Services: Docker, Mesos/Marathon/DCOS (currently testing Kubernetes in GKE - Google Cloud)

Databases: Redshift, Postgres, Cassandra/Scylla

Deployment Tools: Jenkins, Github, Gitlab (different team)

All running in AWS deployed through CloudFormation and Salt.

There's even a Windows Server 2016 instance thrown in there for good measure running Tableau. That's the most reliable part of our stack.

As an indie founder, I prefer to use Node/Express and React/Redux, hosted on Digital Ocean. Really fast and convenient to build SaaSes and single page apps like: https://nulis.io https://helix.startuplab.io If I don't need a lot of fancy interactive functionality, and am building more of a usual web 2.0 website, I sometimes go with Django/PostgreSQL: https://fictionhub.io http://webacademy.io http://lumiverse.io For…

helix reminds me of https://github.com/ioddly/meditations/

I'm curious if you prefer Django over js alternatives for any particular reason?

On https://www.stackpair.com I'm using Go, Rails, Redis, Memcached, Minio, Sidekiq, Postgres, and Kubernetes on GKE.

The iOS app is Cordova: https://www.stackpair.com/apps/ios

For storage and backups I use Hubic and Rclone. Hubic is the best deal I've been able to find for LTS: 10TB for €5/m.
