Title: Back in the day, PHP was a great tool for getting a site up quickly.
Then Ruby on Rails took off in 2006 and took the lead.
It was the &quot;batteries included&quot; of web frameworks.
You could build a CRUD app very quickly.
Many other language frameworks followed and evolved.<p>It is almost 2018.
What do you think is the best tech for a web app these days?<p>Here are some features I could quickly think of:<p><pre><code>  * basic HTTP handling
  * good security
  * i18n&#x2F;translation
  * ORM&#x2F;persistence system
  * a built-in user&#x2F;authentication system
  * a built-in admin UI
  * a migration system for db schema changes
  * easy REST (gRPC, etc) API construction
  * good form&#x2F;model validation
  * a type system for the language
  * websocket support
</code></pre>
I am interested in hearing the HN opinions on this.
What do you think?
