In 2019, developers have gone crazy because every day new frameworks are introduced and many frameworks have gone open-source giving everyone a chance to improve and innovate from the frameworks.

Here are some of the most popular frameworks that developers want to work with in 2019 :

1. Flutter

Flutter

Flutter is an open-source mobile application development framework created by Google. It is used to develop applications for Android and iOS, as well as being the primary method of creating applications for Google Fuchsia.

We know that Android app developers mainly use Kotlin or Java language for coding the apps, whereas iOS developers use Swift or Objective C for the same purpose. Google Flutter is supporting both Android and iOS; which means that it will make the Cross Platform App Development easier. So, you can give a new life to your app irrespective of whichever platform you choose.

Google has made it more flexible, expressive providing highly scalable set of widgets. The animation tools have been further improved and it has also got layered architecture. It offers you a huge support for the creation of customized interfaces with unique themes and priorities according to your needs.

2. React Js

React Js

React is not a framework, it’s a frontend library, but many developers consider it a framework and it’s usually compared in that context. It was developed and maintained by Facebook and it’s used by Facebook and Instagram.

ReactJS is a component-based javascript library which is used for building an interactive and dynamic user interface for websites and mobile applications specifically for developing single page applications where data reflects in real time. Currently, it is one of the most popular front-end JavaScript library in the market.

The learning curve of React is quite low as compared to other frameworks. Anyone having even basic knowledge of programming can easily learn React. So, if you have previous knowledge of HTML and JavaScript you can get your hands on it very quickly.

3. Express Js

Express Js

Express.js, or simply Express, is a web application framework for Node.js, released as free and open-source software under the MIT License. It is designed for building web applications and APIs. It has been called the de facto standard server framework for Node.js.

Express is the backend component of the MEAN stack, together with the MongoDB database software and AngularJS frontend framework.

Node.js itself wasn’t intended to build websites, the Express framework is able to layer in built-in structure and functions needed to actually build a site. It’s a pretty lightweight framework that’s great for giving developers extra, built-in web application features and the Express API without overriding the already robust, feature-packed Node.js platform. In short, Express and Node are changing the way developers build websites.

4. Django

Django

Django is a Python-based free and open-source web framework, which follows the model-template-view (MTV) architectural pattern.

Built by experienced developers, it takes care of much of the hassle of Web development, so you can focus on writing your app without needing to reinvent the wheel. It encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Django takes security seriously and helps developers avoid many common security mistakes.

Companies, organizations and governments have used Django to build all sorts of things — from content management systems to social networks to scientific computing platforms.

5. Ruby on Rails

Ruby on Rails, or Rails, is a server-side web application framework written in Ruby under the MIT License. Rails is a model–view–controller (MVC) framework, providing default structures for a database, a web service, and web pages.

It encourages and facilitates the use of web standards such as JSON or XML for data transfer, HTML, CSS and JavaScript for user interfacing. In addition to MVC, Rails emphasizes the use of other well-known software engineering patterns and paradigms, including convention over configuration (CoC), don’t repeat yourself (DRY), and the active record pattern.

Ruby on Rails’ influence on other web frameworks remains apparent today, with many frameworks in other languages borrowing its ideas, including Django in Python, Catalyst in Perl, Laravel in PHP, Phoenix in Elixir, and Sails.js in Node.js.

Conclusion

New Js Framework every minute

Developers nowadays need to stay aware and updated in the world of technology where a framework popular today may not be old-fashioned tomorrow. The new frameworks emerging everyday are mostly based on the popular ones. There are many resources available on Youtube, Udemy, documentation and various other sites to learn them. Explore them and find your interest. Good Luck !
