I've seen a lot of developers sharing their tech stack on Twitter lately. I am joining the bandwagon. Today, I will share the current tech stack I use when I build my own side projects in 2020. Spoiler: it is Javascript heavy.

Front-end

• Nuxt

  - As a huge Vue.js lover, Nuxt.js is my go-to Vue framework for creating server-side rendering (SSR) apps.

• Gridsome

  - For static site generation. I use this for building blog site and small Vue applications.

• TailwindCSS

  - For UI library. A life-saver. Saves a ton of time and work for a non-designer like me.

• ChakraUI

  - For UI Framework. Works well with Nuxt.js and Gridsome.

• Netlify

  - For hosting website quickly.

Back-end

• MongoDB

  - For database.

• GraphQL

  - For querying API.

• Apollo Server

  - For creating GraphQL server. Apollo is the most popular framework to implement GraphQL client and server.

• Strapi

  - For creating and managing content and API quickly. I use this for quick prototyping. This tech is so amazing!

• Hasura

  - For building APIs quickly.

• Heroku

  - For web server hosting.

• PostgreSQL

  - the standard database in Heroku. Strapi and Hasura use this as a de facto database.

Testing

• Cypress

  - For end to end testing.

Tech Im curious and exploring now

I've been re-exploring the React ecosystem lately. And here is a list of tech I am excited to get hands on.

• Redwoodjs

  - Bringing fullstack app to JAMStack. I love this! I tried this already and it just works!

• Blitz.js

  - Rails-like framework for React. A full-stack React framework.

This is my tech stack in a nutshell and I am very much happy to use these technologies.

Thank you for reading and ..

Happy coding! 😁
