Technology Comparisons

Practical, opinionated comparisons of popular technologies. No filler — just the differences that matter for real-world projects, from someone who has shipped production software with all of them.

Choosing the right technology stack is one of the most consequential decisions in any software project. The wrong framework, cloud provider, or database engine can cost months of development time and thousands in infrastructure spend. These comparisons are drawn from hands-on production experience — I have built and deployed real applications with every technology covered here. Each comparison includes feature-by-feature breakdowns, performance considerations, ecosystem maturity analysis, and an honest verdict on which tool fits which use case. Whether you are evaluating frontend frameworks for a new SaaS product, choosing between cloud providers for enterprise workloads, or deciding on a database engine for your next API, these guides cut through marketing noise and give you the information you need to make a confident, informed decision.
