UI wise: React JS with hooks. I can build everything on the webserver side and do everything with Async requests. It's great... as for on the webserver side... let's just say Not Python.

let's just say Not Python

I'm genuinely interested in learning the reason here

I deeply dislike the almost lack of compile time errors in Python. I like my programming language which as long as I know what I'm doing it will likely be correct once it compiles.

For web applications: Django. For Linux desktop applications: GTK+. For "portable" desktop applications: Qt (because of its tooling).

1. Ruby on Rails - can prototype very fast SaaS like products while still enjoying the language

2. Elixir with Phoenix - building my first product with it and I like how it pushes me to think more about my code

As a Rookie: Go without any frameworks. Also very curious about Phoenix/Elixir

As a pro: Laravel/PHP.

I went from Laravel (PHP) to Symfony (PHP) to Flask (Python), and Django (Python). Django feels the best to build medium-big stuff quickly, but all of the ones mentioned above are decent. Frontend-wise Angular feels too bloated, Vue.js 2 is nice (waiting for v3), but looking into Svelte and feeling excited about it.

CSS I'm comfortable with Bootstrap and Bulma, but want to look into Tailwind for future projects.

C# / WPF. Unfortunately, it's become obsolete (WPF), and M$ is pushing UWP into view. I have lots and lots and lots of issues with that, I could probably write a book on it.

They're working on WinUI 3.0, and that should be the holy grail of UIs (when it comes to C#). I'm pretty skeptical, so we'll see...
