Poll: For your startup, do you use Django, Rails, PHP or Other?

We have Ruby, Python, Go, C, Node, Perl, Backbone and maybe a few others I&#x27;m not remembering right now.<p>When you&#x27;re building distributed systems, you pick the right tool for the job.<p>Edit: And Assembly: <a href="http://youtu.be/zrSvoQz1GOs?t=15m44s" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;zrSvoQz1GOs?t=15m44s</a> I&#x27;d actually recommend the entire talk.

Go &#x2F; Postgres &#x2F; React &amp; Fluxxor<p>Edit: forgot to mention go-tigertonic. :)

Scala &#x2F; Play (and Spray) &#x2F; Postgres<p>Starting to use Angular, experimenting with Akka &#x2F; Spray

Java (Jersey, Jackson, Guice) on Google App Engine.

No iOS or Android? I would have thought the biggest change in the last five years (since you last conducted the survey) would have been the massive increase in startups working in mobile.

We use R and Shiny server pro for our back-end. It&#x27;s hosted on AWS EB with our static site on S3. We love it - the data scientists can write and push features directly, and everything (including our API&#x27;s) are easily maintainable in R. I&#x27;ve been shouting the praise of R and it&#x27;s usefulness as a production ready language for a long time.<p>Contact me with questions about data science, start ups, or R - if you have a data backed start up, R + Shiny is the way to go.

Perl. CGI::Application + FastCGI.

Erlang with the Nitrogen Web Framework (<a href="http://nitrogenproject.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;nitrogenproject.com</a>)<p>Also, a future project I&#x27;ve been kicking around will likely be done with Erlang and ChicagoBoss (<a href="http://chicagoboss.org" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;chicagoboss.org</a>) - not because Nitrogen is lacking, just in the name of mastering another framework with a different focus.

We are using java. our crawlers are heavily threaded and we wanted somethi g that was both efficient and ran on app engine if needed.

Ruby + Grape &#x2F; Polymer + CoffeeScript on the frontend with MySQL, MongoDB and Carbon as databases, using RabbitMQ to hook it all up. Right tool for the job with some legacy. There&#x27;s an old school Rails project and some Python as well.<p>We use docker to make provisioning on Linux development machines less painful, vagrant&#x2F;Capistrano + chef for the ops.

Scala &#x2F; Play &#x2F; Postgres

Go &#x2F; Postgres &#x2F; Angular

I&#x27;m surprised this isn&#x27;t more popular: Python&#x2F;web.py

Java &#x2F; Guice &#x2F; PostgreSQL and.... a custom framework!

.NET , because that&#x27;s what I have lots of experience with.

Perl &#x2F; Mojolicious

At work I&#x27;ve been working primarily with Ruby on Rails, but for personal projects and my fledgling startup, I&#x27;m using Django with Ember.js in the frontend.

Haskell &#x2F; Scotty

Started with Rails &amp; Node, moved much of Node to Go, introduced Angular and deprecating Rails where we can and moving the remaining Node to Go.

<p><pre><code> nginx Postgres, Cassandra RabbitMQ, Python (some backend services), Java (Jersey, MyBatis, Guice, + a lot of custom stuff) Angular</code></pre>

We mainly use Grails for webapps. Most of our code is Groovy with a smattering of Java here and there, + some Javascript in the front-end.

For my own startup i used RoR, for freelancing clients i use Ruby&#x2F;RoR, Node.js&#x2F;Express&#x2F;Sails, PHP&#x2F;CodeIgniter.

Scala &#x2F; Play &#x2F; Postgres &#x2F; Angular

Use PHP Laravel Angular at work. Rails for personal projects. If I were to start a new project Node + Angular I expect

Python + Django for the bulk of things. But also Perl and C++. Some tools are more suitable for tasks than others.

PHP with Laravel, node.js and angular.

PHP&#x2F;nginx + MySQL, and a fully custom-built framework on top of PHP.

Groovy&#x2F;Grails here.

C++&#x2F;Qt + FastCGI

Python &#x2F; Tornado

Java Spring &#x2F; Angular &#x2F; Postgres&#x2F; Storm

Haskell &#x2F; Yesod

Node.js&#x2F;ExpressJS&#x2F;AngularJS&#x2F;PostgreSQL

Mongodb&#x2F;ExpressJS&#x2F;AngularJS&#x2F;NodeJS

glad to see i&#x27;m not the only one using PHP. reading HN sometimes give you the impression that PHP is only used by dinosaurs

Java Rest backend FTW! (No Spring!)

Does Flask go under other?

Sinatra as well as rails

Meteor &#x2F; Meteorite

node.js &#x2F; postgres &#x2F; vue.js<p>Moving some of the API stuff to Go

Python &#x2F; Django

Node, Mongo, Angular

Python &#x2F; Flask

Python&#x2F;Pyramid

Python&#x2F;Flask

Scala &#x2F; finatra &#x2F; Backbone &#x2F; postgres

Old stuff:<p>Python&#x2F;Django<p>New development:<p>Python&#x2F;Pyramid

.NET

Node.js

we use pyramid

Nice to see some Django. I had to move away from it and towards flask and rails since it was basically abandonware for years. I&#x27;m glad they are moving forward and that the project is hosted on GitHub now.
