Frameworks
A framework is usually a set of libraries and tools that help to build a web app.
There are tools that can make web application development easier, and not through
explanations but by providing a profound basis to build a web app on. A web application
framework is one of such tools.
1) Django
It is a high-level Python web application development framework that provides a clean
and pragmatic design to the database-driven websites. This open-source framework is
based on the Model-View-Template (MVT) architecture, that makes it reusable and
enables components to plug-in seamlessly.it allows administrators to develop, update,
and delete users easily. This back end development framework is known for its bundled
applications, including a dynamic administrative interface and tools to generate Google
sitemaps.
Features:
- Clear and defined MVC organization: Django follows some fairly well
established MVC patterns. With everything in place and where requests follow a clear
path through urlresolvers, middleware, view and context processors.
Technical specifications:
2) Ruby on rails
This is one of the most popular web frameworks written using the Ruby programming
language and executed on Linux. It offers developers a comfortable coding
environment, with easy compilation and testing. A special thanks to the MVC
architecture with which developers can add their code for views or models in a
concurrent environment.
It also allows a smooth transition from back end development and testing to the final
stages of the development lifecycle. It has built-in security-related functions and uses a
set of add-ons before the launch of the web app.
Features:
- Good conventions: MVC is a great starting point, and perfect for APIs.
- Massive community: The large scale and a lot of developers using Rails
have produced a lot of guides, tutorials, add-ons, documentation, videos and everything
that can help the developers of new and old Rails.
Technical specifications:
3) Flask
Flask is the most popular and lightweight Python web app development microarray that
does not use tools or libraries. It is one of the most ideal web frameworks for running
web applications through integrated devices. With Unicode-based support and
extensive documentation, it reduces tasks for programmers and project analysts.
Features:
- Maximum resources: It is one of the most popular Python web app development
frameworks. It has a plenty of guides, tutorials, and libraries available for its users.
Technical specifications:
4) Phoenix (Elixir)
The Phoenix back end development framework works with Erlang’s Virtual Machine
(VM), that makes better use of resources. It is capable of handling a large number of
users simultaneously, by virtue of its high speeds. Like Ruby on Rails or Python’s
Django, it is written in Elixir and follows the MVC pattern on the server side.
The fastest virtual machine in Phoenix reduces latency time and boosts the
performance of an API series. A large JSON request that takes between 1.5 and 2
seconds in Rails takes only 400 ms with Phoenix. The “cost per 1000 active users” in
Phoenix is much lower than the other back-end platforms.
Features:
- Beautiful and well-designed: With this web frameworks, you can easily
develop beautiful applications.
- Very fast: You can get sub-millisecond response times for simple requests.
- Real-time streaming: With its soft real-time API, it works well with mobile,
web and embedded devices.
5) Express.js
It is a flexible and fast Node.JS web app development framework which offers a thin
layer of core web application features along with the main features of Node.JS.
Express, being used by many web development companies, functions to facilitate the
process of creating dynamic mobile apps.
A large number of known web frameworks of Node.JS like ItemsAPI and Bottr are
based on Express. Moreover, it is easy to create a solid API with an Express web app
development framework, a special thanks to the presence of several HTTP utility
methods.
Features:
- Mature enough: It has matured quite a lot during all that time. It’s more stable
than its competitors and a huge community backing it.
Technical specifications:
Written in: JavaScript
License: MIT
Repository:https://github.com/expressjs/express
Platforms:Cross-platform
6) Laravel
Being an open source web app builder, Laravel follows the MVC architecture pattern. It
is a PHP framework for the development of extensive backend web apps, which
facilitates seamless connectivity with the back-end. It is well equipped with effective
command line tools and help functions.
This backend web frameworks was initially introduced as an open source PHP web
framework in 2011. It has become popular thanks to its database migration, intuitive
interface, blade template engine etc. The framework has built-in utilities to access
relational databases with modular technology. packing system.
Features:
7) Pyramid
Features:
Technical specifications:
Default ORM: SqlAlchemy
Default Template Engine: Jinja2
AngularJs
Angular is a frontend framework that specializes in building rich Single-Page applications. It’s
a very rich framework able to build complete client-side applications and there’s so much to
do and learn in Angular. Angular 1.x used Javascript, but later releases adopted Typescript,
which is a superset of Javascript. Angular’s main cons are its size compared to other
frameworks, and the fact it’s not SEO friendly by nature, though it can be SEO
optimized. Angular was developed by Google, and it’s used by Google, Microsoft, and Paypal.
Here is our detailed post on Angular:
ReactJs
ReactJS is an open source, JavaScript library maintained by Facebook along with a large
developers’ community. This library(Also convertable to a web development framework) is
used extensively in developing user interface for web applications. This particular
framework was invented with a purpose of building large applications with data that
changes again and again over time.
VueJs
Ember
Ember was named the best Javascript framework back in 2015. Today, the Ember community
is huge and it’s ever expanding, with new features and releases being added regularly. Ember
possesses the two-way data binding that Angular boasts and it comes with a lot of features
and components that you can use out of the box. It’s being used by Google, Microsoft,
Heroku, and Netflix. Ember revolves around the developer’s productivity and attempts to
maximize it by either eliminating the need for time-wasting activities or adopting some JS best
practices in its core design.
Backbone
Backbone is an extremely light frontend framework that’s fit for building rich Single-Page
applications. It follows an MV* pattern and partly implements the MVC design. Backbone only
has one core dependency which is the Underscore library, and it has a rich ecosystem, that
when added to Mustache and Marionette, will allow you to build complete client-side
applications.
