What's your preferred tech stack to build useful products fast?

Question

It depends on the type and scope of software you're building, but what do you use when you want to make a tool (deployable and shippable) that just solves a given problem fast.?

I am currently playing around with FastAPI and I thought it should be doable to spin up robust APIs quick with a Postgre database and couple it with an HMTX frontend if not a lot of fancy interaction is needed in the application.

What do you prefer?

Rails + MySQL + Redis + React works best for the use case for me.

I've gotten pretty comfortable with AWS Lambda and that hosts most things for me, then i use python and planetscale for the db

@ramitkoul Only ever seen Rails from a distance, never used it. But I have heard good things about development speed when using it!

@ramitkoul Will keep it in mind! But first I'll try integrating Redis with FastAPI and see how that goes

@entreeden Ahh Sounds convenient! Waiting for the day open-source cloud options gather enough traction that one is able to use something like OpenStack for a similar use case
