This is a little too generic to answer without making a bunch of potentially incorrect assumptions.

What do you mean by "freedom", and "fast development"?

It could even be said that "freedom" can lead to "faster development", if freedom means freedom to try new things without fear of breaking stuff.

Like in while developing a Web in Node.JS you have the freedom you can use whatever you want but developing a web in Django you don't have that kind freedom like in you have in NODE.JS.

This is just incorrect comparison, node is a platform, while Django is a framework. You can get the same "freedom" with python on its own.

Do you mean something like "Using a framework" vs "Going vanilla" ? Where a framework might impose certain opionions or ways of doing things, such as routing.

Whereas if you do not use a framework, you can do your routing however you like?

Most applications are created to solve a business problem, and most business problems are solvable with fairly standard technologies. Convention > Configuration.

I mostly use ASP.NET Core, which isn’t a perfect example, but in the past I’ve built side projects with Rails, Django and NestJS.
