Tried and tested tools:

  • React
  • Clojure (for the backend)
  • Firebase (Great for quick web prototypes and large web scale apps)
  • Cassandra (but will I ever host my own cluster again?)
  • JVM
  • Cloudformation (Yes, the syntax is annoying, but it's nice being able to delete an entire formation of AWS services off in one hit)

Tools I'd like to start a new project with:

(I have had minimal or no experience with these - they sound like a cool idea)

  • Hyperapp
  • create-react-app
  • Falcor (like GraphQL, but simpler & practical out of the box I've heard)
  • Apollo data A caching GraphQL library
  • Idris - A Haskell like language with dependent types
  • Terraform for blue green deployments

Tools I'd like to stay away from

  • Ruby (and rails)
  • AngularJS
  • Plain Java
  • Puppet (I dislike how you can get your servers stuck in a strange state. Phoenix environments can help here. But enough is enough. And all the ruby...!)
  • Webpack (Very easy to turn your javascript project into something that no other tool knows how to navigate (e.g. editors...)
