Ask HN: What's your preferred stack for personal projects?

It varies a lot depending on the project, but generally I'm just using gcc, make, and a text editor. I'll use Eclipse as an IDE for particularly complex projects.

Next.js + MUI + Vercel, with Jetbrains and Github behind the scenes. Super easy and fast DX. Maybe Astro for simpler projects.

Grew up in the LAMP world and wrote HTML/CSS/JS by hand. Not going back to that.

I keep wanting to learn Swift (I miss nice, fast desktop apps) but never seem to have time...

A Linux web server where I write HTML and Javascript and then I check if it works in a web browser.
