5+ Best frontend and backend frameworks for developers

Hi guys, if you want to become a full stack developer, you have a great choice between frontend and backend frameworks. While frontend frameworks are dominated by JavaScript, the backend has many features for building server-side applications, such as Java, Python, Ruby, and even JavaScript.

The tech world is changing as fast as technology is changing, and so are tech jobs. Gone are the days when you could get a job just by knowing one technology or programming language, and somehow survive in that position for years without learning new things.
In today's competitive world, more and more people are looking for full-stack software engineers, that is, those who know both front-end and server technologies and can independently develop a full-featured web application.

If you look at the job description of any full-stack software engineer in internet companies, you will find that a full-stack software engineer needs to know front-end technologies like ES-next, Babel, React, Redux, Bootstrap, LESS, etc., as well as basic skills like Python, Django, Graphene (GraphQL), REST, MySQL, DynamoDB, Redis, Docker, etc. In other words, expectations have become very high.

If you are a full-stack software engineer or someone aspiring to become a full-stack software engineer, then you should be familiar with several front-end and back-end website development frameworks like React and Node, but it also depends on your background, such as whether you are primarily a Python background or a Java/JavaScript background.

In this article, I am going to share some of the best and most popular web development frameworks, which I think a full-stack developer should be familiar with.

I have included both front-end and back-end frameworks for your reference. Depending upon your background, you can choose the related set of technologies to enhance your profile.
