Of late, I've moved to Elm/Lambda functions/DynamoDB or PostgreSQL. I've seen my productivity improve a lot when using Elm with the added advantage of being able to clearly define the problem in my mind.

Using Netlify for deployment has also save me a lot of headache (they really are awesome!)

In the end, like everyone else points out, its about picking a set of tools which lets you work without thinking too much about the development process itself.
