How To Choose the Right Tech Stack For Your
Project?

• With every new year, thousands of new apps are
  developed all over the world, amounting to
  millions of dollars, and with every new
  advancement, new tech stacks become in demand.
• Are you interested in knowing more about tech
  stack meaning?
• The term tech stack is a buzzword frequently
  used in technical contexts, although its exact
  meaning is not always evident. For example, when
  you enquire about someones stack, they might
  disclose the programming languages or development
  environments they employ.
• What does it mean, then?
• By reading our guide, learn what is a tech stack
  and how to choose one for your next project.

What is a Tech Stack?

• A tech stack, also known as a technology stack,
  is a collection of technologies you can employ to
  develop a website, a web application, or a mobile
  application for your project. This is intriguing,
  right?
• A technology stack can be thought of as a group
  of technological services that you can use to
  create responsive single-page applications for
  your company's requirements.
• The tech stack used by Facebook is a good
  illustration. Using cutting-edge technology like
  JavaScript, HTML, CSS, PHP, and ReactJS, Facebook
  is an online platform.
• A tech stack typically consists of Front-End and
  Back-End components. In the part after this,
  we'll go into further detail.
• But before that let me make you go through the
  data for the most popular technologies being used
  globally.

What are the Essential Components of Tech Stack?

• We'll now concentrate on comprehending the idea
  of tech stack components in this post on what a
  tech stack is. When building a web application,
  front-end development and back-end development
  are two essential steps.
• The customer's experience using the programme on
  their device, whether it be a desktop computer,
  tablet, or smartphone, is represented by what
  they see on the front end.
• Everything that takes place in the background to
  make the application function is what makes up
  the back end. "Client-side" and "server-side" can
  be used interchangeably with "front end" and
  "back end."

The main components of a Technology Stack

• Front-End Technology Stacks
• Front-end specifically deals with client-side
  technology and it is not having a connection with
  server-side terminologies. In simple words, we
  can say that the front end is what exactly users
  see when they open any website. Front-end
  development services focus on graphics, buttons,
  and how things behave when someone interacts with
  them.
• Front-end tech stacks usually consist of three
  elements
• HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
• CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
• JavaScript

8

• HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
• Its one of the standard markup languages used
  for creating web pages.
• It is primarily used for structuring and placing
  content on your web apps.
• CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
• Its the language that determines the style of
  your web page.
• This technology specifically describes how HTML
  elements are to be displayed on the screen, on
  paper, or in other media.
• It is solely responsible for handling colours,
  fonts, layout, etc. to beautify your web
  application as per your needs.
• JavaScript
• It is a scripting language that helps you to
  implement complex features on web pages
• Enables interactivity and enhances the
  functionality of a website or app.
• This technology is responsible for performing
  advanced functionalities like displaying timely
  content updates, interactive maps, animated 2D/3D
  graphics, scrolling video jukeboxes, etc.

• Back-End Tech Stack
• The back end is the server-side technology. It
  supports the inner workings of a website or app.
  In short, these are the behind-the-scenes pieces
  that make the visible portions look and act the
  way they do.
• The back end generally consists of four key
  terminologies, such as servers, databases,
  frameworks, and programming languages.
• Your application will be made using code written
  in a programming language like JavaScript, PHP,
  or Python. Programming languages handle the
  crucial business logic required by your apps.
  JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Python, Ruby,
  Scala, PHP, and C are a few popular computer
  languages.
• A framework, such as Ruby on Rails, Django, or
  Laravel, is a collection of parts meant to make
  development easier. Because they have shared
  utilities, frameworks give applications structure
  so that you don't have to create every bit of
  logic from scratch. .NET, Express, Spring,
  Django, Laravel, and Rails are a few of the
  well-known web frameworks.

10

• Diversity in top web frameworks and technologies

• Diversity in top Databases

11

• Your code is stored in databases like MySQL,
  PostgreSQL, or MongoDB. A tech stack's databases
  are an essential component. You need a location
  to store all your information, regardless of how
  straightforward or complex your application.
  MongoDB and MySQL are two common databases. In
  addition to storing and retrieving data,
  contemporary data platforms like MongoDB also
  offer cognitive querying, aggregation, and
  transformation capabilities.
• A computer software or physical device known as a
  server, such as Apache, Nginx, or IIS,
  distributes (or serves) your programmed content
  to users as a website or application. A web
  server receives HTTP requests from the client
  (such as a browser), sends them to the database,
  retrieves the needed data, and manages the
  answer. Depending on the project's styling
  requirements, a user interface to employ markups
  like HTML and CSS stylesheets, or frameworks like
  Bootstrap or Tailwind.
• The runtime environment is the terminology by
  which an application is run. Runtime provides
  cross-platform compatibility. Java Runtime
  Environment (JRE), Node.js, and Common Language
  Runtime (CLR) are examples of runtime
  environments.
• Other elements, like as APIs, BI and analytics
  tools, cloud services, and microservices, can
  improve an application's capabilities.

12
What is a Tech Stack Used For?

• The primary aim of creating a tech stack for your
  application is to
• Maximize the application efficiency
• Enhance the productivity of your application
• Improve the performance and security of the
  application
• Selecting the perfect tech stack for your
  application is an essential factor that you need
  to consider for your entire website or app
  development process. Moreover, the selection of
  the right tech and tools makes it easy for you to
  build faster and more responsive apps.

13
Difference Between Web and Mobile App Tech Stack

• After having a look at the basic concept of what
  is a tech stack, lets focus on understanding the
  difference between web and mobile app stacks.
• Mobile App Tech Stacks
• For developing a mobile application for your
  business, you need to take into account various
  user perspectives. In simple words, you need to
  make applications for different devices as day by
  day new devices are getting launched in the
  market.
• And if we talk about mobile app development, you
  need to be ready with various mobile apps
  platforms like Android and iOS.
• Apart from Android and iOS app development, there
  exists an option where you can write the same
  code for both technologies and thats what is
  called cross-platform technologies.

14
Lets start by understanding the Android tech
stack.
Programming Language Android App Development Tools UI Framework
Java is the only primary language that is specifically used for developing Android applications. This language is fully-supported and has great scalability. Android Studio is the official development platform for Googles Android app. Android UI comes up with pre-built templates that are handy for developers to build user interfaces quickly
Apart from Java, Kotlin is the most-preferred language for developing Android apps. The good part is that it is considered to be the second official Android development language by Google. Built upon Jetbrains technology, it provides an intuitive interface for developers to build Android apps. Android UI make use of prebuilt Android UI components, like structured layout objects and UI controls, to build the graphical user interface for your applications.
15
Now well understand the tech stack for iOS apps.
Programming Language iOS App Development Tools UI Framework
Objective-C is the original language used to build the iOS app. Nevertheless, building an app with Objective-C isnt easy, and developers are prone to make mistakes with it. Xcode An official development tool by Apple, and its your easy-to-use platform whether youre using Swift or Objective-C. It comes up with all the features needed to build the native iOS mobile app, including a visual interface builder. UIKit UIKit is the basic framework for building graphical components in the iOS app. It contains templates defining the UI elements which form the building blocks of the app.
Swift is a relatively newer language and developers are favouring it over Objective-C. With its safer syntax, fewer mistakes are committed and apps are developed in much less time. Its also easier to find developers adept in Swift as its easier to learn and master. AppCode Developed by a 3rd party, AppCode is an open-source alternative to XCode. While it enables iOS mobile app development, it lacks the features of XCode and to an extent, is still dependent on the latter. SwiftUI SwiftUI is a newer framework that offers a more efficient way of designing UI elements in iOS apps. However, it only works for iOS 13 and above, and there are limited resources as it was just launched in 2019.

• The cross-platform tech stacks.
• React Native (JS)
• Flutter (Dart)
• Xamarin (C)
• Web App Tech Stack
• Compared to the mobile app, desktop apps works
  differently. You dont need to download a web app
  to your device to use it.
• Web app tech stacks use resources that are
  available in an internet browser. There are many
  internet browsers, and your tech stack should
  work with all of them.
• However, its wise to test your websites and
  online applications on all the most popular
  browsers to make sure it works the way you expect.

17
Importance of Tech Stack for Your Project

• The significance of the technological stack is
  that it makes it easier for you to develop apps
  with fewer obstacles and makes it easier to
  estimate the time and cost needed for your
  application's requirements.
• As they directly affect the following (but are
  not limited to) criteria, you must choose the
  ideal tech stack for your project demands.
• How your application runs now and how it will be
  affected in the future perspectives.
• How you can efficiently maintain and scale your
  application to enhance your business performance.
• You need to decide whether your business or
  application objectives are met or not
• How you are going to store your application data,
  whether it may be local or cloud.
• The best custom software development company
  should be contacted in order to talk with or hire
  full-stack developers so that you can be
  confident of your business goals and how to
  achieve them. Also, choosing the appropriate
  tools and services for your project's
  requirements will shield you from many current
  and potential development hazards.
