While this question plagues many and myself, it is as frequently asked as it is frequently debated. Whether you’re looking to make a complete web application or your first web page, the technologies you choose to do it come with their own their pros and cons. Here I am to list my favourite’s and why.

My personal favourites

With the amount of upcoming JavaScript frameworks and the new benefits they each have, they all define a new set of rules which can limit your projects scalability with other technologies. I remember trying to use Svelte with PHP and that did not go well. That said, here is how I’d do it going into 2024.

• Typescript (for perfect JavaScript)
• Reactjs / Vuejs
• Postgres (Database)
• Redis (if needed)

With these fundamentals I would argue that you could achieve a fast and efficient website that doesn’t compromise the ability to look amazing. React has been a good framework for me to learn regarding front end development though it can be restricting when making multiple pages. In this case, I would lean more toward things like Next.js. In reality, many organisations aren’t even using frameworks. It remains true that 70% of pages make use of JQuery to this day and the era of frameworks is still a new one, an era some are choosing to adapt to rather than others. And not in all cases is it necessary to. However you put your page online, good luck to you in 2024. ❤️
