Webdev Tools

This is a big list of all the web development tools I’ve come to use, and sometimes even enjoy.

Frameworks > Language

I am a framework person. If there’s a good, nice to use, enjoyable framework for a supbar language, I’ll prioritize the framework over the language. I also do web development and (usually) my work isn’t super widely used, so I don’t need top notch performance.

Favorite Tools & Languages

• Svelte <3
  • I like SvelteKit a lot and use it for smaller projects a bunch
    • You won’t catch me using it for anything with a database beyond basic CRUD operations though
• Laravel
  • I like this framework a lot! It took a bit getting used to it, but it’s genuinely nice
• C#
  • The language. Not most major frameworks that actually uses C#.
• TypeScript (and by virtue, JavaScript)
  • JS is the language I first learnt and am still most comfortable in
  • though I prefer TS nowadays
    • sorry, I’m a JSDoc disliker
• Lume
  • Static site generator for Deno (a javascript runtime)
• Bun
  • Another javascript runtime

Stuff I know but don’t prefer

• Java
  • I use it for minecraft mods and that’s about it
  • that’s not webdev though
• React
  • …don’t get me started on React again
• NodeJS
  • I still use it a lot honestly.
