Hello there!
Which language and framework are you using for the backend on your website? Example: js, expressjs. (X, Z. X = Programming language, Z = framework)
I use javascript, expressjs currently for my APIs / backends, but I want to switch to python, flask.

Language: JS/TS
Framework: Depending on backend purpose, either NestJS or NextJS
NextJS: coupled with react frontend to serve minor apis
NestJS: more robust and complex applications (and microservice infrastructure)
A mix of C# and PHP. Communication between applications is via Web APIs, or RPC over a message queue. Moving toward a completely async C# implementation that doesn't use RPC at all. SignalR is part of that puzzle, allowing back-end processing to communicate back to the front-end.
Used to do a lot of Nodejs with custom frameworks, switched to Go and Encore backend engine.
It all depends on the requirements, to be honest, I need tools to prototype REST APIs fast and be able to release to production without too many changes. What are you aiming to build?
a small API for a discord bot that detects and deletes phishing links.
Yeah, anything would do here, to be honest.
I'm not familiar with Flask, but in Node or Go you'd not need a framework for it, since there'd be just a few static routes.
Language: JS / TS
Framework: SvelteKit
I really love Svelte and how simple you can build awesome apps, and SvelteKit is perfect with server-side rendering and routing.
Personally, I love it to build the whole application in one language, before I discovered SvelteKit I used plain HTML / CSS / JS with PHP.
Elixir language with Phoenix Framework
php, javascript, python. I prefer microservices, small functions, all glued with docker for development, and kubernetes for production. observability with sentry, which can couple the frontend as well and give me exact trace from the client to the backend service issues, perfoamance also.
Node but I think Java is better
You’d prefer flask to Django?
I’d root for Django, it’s the whole tool box!
In fact, I haven't really watched Django yet.
Be sure to check it out.
I love Django since it is much scalable, better security like csrf enablement.
(I would be publishing an article on this very soon.Be sure to check it out)
It depends on the customer which I work for.

Is your project for freelance job?
At the moment my projects are only for personal/learning needs
On my last project I utilized ASP.NET with SignalR framework to communicate with my WinForms applications.
