For work, I've long used Ruby on Rails with Postgresql and Redis running on some version of Linux with Nginx or Apache (depending on the systems folk).

For local work/personal projects, I strive to not run remote servers. So I use Hugo to kick out a static HTML site.

All of this I do with the underlying environment of Emacs.

I picked Emacs up 2 years ago, and I am stunned by how much more capable/productive/reflective/generative I now am. Gobsmacked.

For example, Emacs powers my personal knowledge management system (PKM) via org-mode and org-roam. I have continued to build functions to feed my PKM, as well as to harvest things from that PKM.

Imagine, I'm doing lots of coding, design reviews, daily written stand-ups, and weekly reports. All of that swirls within Emacs, and I've written functions to interconnect those approaches.

(Heck while writing this, I realized that I have a new function to consider to help me further integrate my daily activity.)

Backend - Node, Express, Mongodb, Graphql for APIs
Frontend - React, Nextjs, Tailwind, Next UI - Component library

Never heard of Next UI. Does it easily work together with Tailwind?

I use next ui because of their design and their dark mode support. I guess you won't need tailwind for applying css for next ui components, I use tailwind for layout related styles.

No man don't mix the two. Tailwind CSS styles broke my NextUI theme. Not recommended.

At work, we use nextJS for the render layer. Our data comes from services we write in Go.

Sports data is a active service running on AWS EC2 and uses Postgres. Finance data runs passively in AWS lambda functions.

The frontend renderers are AWS Fargate instances.

Code and build pipeline on Github.

My personal stack varies (mostly in order to learn from it).

I made good experience with elderJS as frontend layer. I am recently working with Strapi as a basic CRUD api with some satellite services around it for storage, conversion and video streaming.

  • HTML for content
  • CSS for style
  • JavaScript for frontend functions
  • PHP for API
  • SQLite for data
  • VSCode to glue everything together

As a frontend dev, I really like what Supabase is doing for the backend.

  • use PostgRest for REST tied to a postgres db
  • admin dashboard
  • realtime database
  • auth, user roles management
  • open source

Along with Next JS. 👍✨noiiice

Java, Spring, PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Kafka/Messaging, Kubernetes, Docker, Angular, GitHub Actions, GCP.

I don't want to use Angular for the next one. It's a maintaince and performance headache.

I like GCP over AWS and Azure for the tech. But GCP sucks in support and help.
I'm a big fan of AWS. They have stable tech, easy to reach support, billing flexibility, etc.
Azure is different and I guess they're perfect for a mature enterprise.

Node.js / js as a language

Sails.js as MVC web app

Vue for client apps or jQuery replacement

Ngrok for local tunneling (paid the yearly plan as I get do much usage)

Moleculerjs for microservice framework

Traefik for reverse proxy/lb

Cloudflare for waf/cdn/domain level stuff

Redis/keydb for cache

Postgres as it can cover olap oltp as well as jsonb is great for documents.

Docker / docker-compose - I really like this in Dev especially it keeps my machine clean.

Node-red as a general app for quick prototyping integrations.

Hosting via hetzner or ssdnodes
