MERN

After 4-5 years with JavaScript (and loving it), I finally decided to give TypeScript a chance. Just coded a contract-based project with it. Both backend and frontend (react) were programmed in TypeScript. I should say that I have used typescript before on smaller one-to-three file size projects. It was mostly stuff like linear equation systems, matrix operations, basic sorting algorithms, etc. It makes you write better, quality code, and saves time....

I’ve personally used both Laravel and MERN stack, and still have ongoing projects with both. There are many things to consider before choosing a stack to work with. For me, it boils down to the following 2 things. Do I need SEO for this project? If yes then Laravel is more favorable over MERN stack. Do I need WebSockets for some “live” functionality? then Node’s the obvious winner. Now don’t get me wrong, Laravel can do live stuff (called broadcasting) and MERN stack can be optimized for search engines, but is it recommended?...
