Ask HN: What web application server back end would you use for a new project?
- jessikat 5y agoASP.NET Core, it's a great ecosystem with great tooling, and C# is fantastic language to work with. I develop on Windows, deploy to Linux with Docker, docs are great too.
- 0x6A75616E 5y agoI've been wanting to try nhost, but if it's something you'd want to put in prod fairly quickly, I'd go with Firebase.

- ramitmittal 5y agoI want to try postgrest.
- digitaltrees 5y agoRails.
- sandreas 5y agoThis strongly depends on the purpose... How is it sized? Can it get bigger? Is it realtime? Is it Web / App / Other frontend? What backend languages / tech is supported? I always wanted to try or tried successfully: SignalR (C#) Flask (Python) Gorilla (Golang) Revel (Golang) API Platform (PHP) Hapi (js) Express (js) Actix-web (rust)
- bellttyler 5y agoI've been really happy with express (Node). It has scaled really well for my company. Currently processing almost 200 million requests a month on a cheap $25/mo heroku dyno.
- Apaec 5y agoNote that this means 77 requests per second, which is not impressive at all. 200000000/(30x24x60x60) ~= 77.16
