romikusumabaktion Ask HN: What's the best backend right now?

Thanks for the resources! By "best" I mean "truly built for backend services / web APIs", so it has no performance and scalability issues to be used as a backend for multiplatform applications. Any personal recommendations based on that?

romikusumabaktion Ask HN: What's the best backend right now?

Thanks for sharing your insights! For this project, I'm leaning towards more modern backend technologies. While Java and .NET offer scalability and reliability, I'm aiming for a tech stack that's perceived as more modern. Python, while fun, might not be the best fit due to potential performance concerns.

This project is actually more of a hobby and learning experience. And I would of course start with the web first. I'm inspired by OpenAI's approach in gradually rolling out ChatGPT – starting with web, then mobile, and maybe finally desktop.

Thanks for your suggestions! I might consider Node.js.
