Not so much science in this list, more personal and practical view:

As a web developer: WebAssembly

As a DevOp: Kubernetes

As a backend engineer: headless (CMS) API systems like Strapi or Wagtail

What is the meaning of headless anyway ?

It's essentially a back-end only content management system that makes content accessible via a RESTful API.

According to wikipedia, the term "headless" comes from the concept of chopping the "head" (the front-end, i.e. the website) off the "body" (the back-end, i.e. the content repository).
