What Is The Best Programming Language For Your Web Product?
Ievgen Kuzminov http://stdout.in @iJackUA 7+ years in Web Development Ruby
Team Lead in MobiDev Author of http://rwdtow.stdout.in
Dilemma How do we choose programming language for a product
? ❏ There is no “bad” languages ❏ The “best” lang - is the lang you know! ❏ Ecosystem does matter
Speed vs Quality vs Price Requests per Second in “Hello
World” has nothing to do here...
Recent decade of The Web Dev
The World Has Changed
WAT? ❏ Backend ~> Frontend ❏ Relational ~> Denormalized ❏
Majestic Monolith ~> Microservices ❏ Static ~> Realtime ❏ a lot more ...
A new choice ❏ Application criterias ❏ Ecosystem: packages, tools,
community ❏ Evolution roadmap ❏ A bit of personal “taste”
Master of “yellow” titles ❏ PHP is not so awful
❏ Ruby is not so awesome ❏ Node.JS is not so almighty
Master of “yellow” titles ❏ PHP is not so awful
❏ Ruby is not so awesome ❏ Node.JS is not so almighty ❏ “This city needs a hero”
Language
Language ❏ Evolution ❏ Syntax ❏ DSL ❏ Metaprogramming
Language ❏ Execution flow (sync, async) ❏ Performance ❏ Concurrency
❏ Debug
Ecosystem
Ecosystem ❏ Packages ❏ Web frameworks ❏ Tests ❏ Daemons
❏ Deployment ❏ IDE
Human Resources
Human Resources ❏ Entry level. Familiarity. ❏ Skills ❏ Poka-yoke
❏ Hiring
❏ Low entry barrier ❏ Bigger market ❏ Cheaper Developers:
❏ Pure PHP ~> Frameworks ❏ Harder to filter skilled devs NB!
❏ Quick start with Rails ❏ MVP oriented ❏ Harder
to scale Developers: ❏ Solely Rails oriented ❏ Easier to filter skilled devs NB!
❏ Aimed to API/Realtime ❏ Node.JS is everywhere ❏ Harder
to maintain backend Developers: ❏ Come from Frontend ❏ Closer to Full-Stack NB!
Dark Horses of Web Development
Elixir, Go, Closure and others ❏ Compiled (fast) ❏ Much
better performance ❏ Close to system level ❏ Functional approaches ❏ Multi-core concurrency
❏ Erlang + OTP ❏ Functional ❏ Ruby-like syntax ❏
Friendly web framework ❏ Metaprogramming ❏ Scaling ❏ Fault tolerance NB! http://elixir-lang.org
A new choice (once again!) ❏ Application criterias ❏ Ecosystem:
packages, tools, community ❏ Evolution roadmap ❏ A lot of personal “taste”
Brief conclusion ❏ PHP: “classic” web portal ❏ Ruby: web
portal + background jobs ❏ Node.JS: isomorphic app, API + SPA ❏ Elixir: your next “world class” pet-project
Thank you!
