Literally anything, thanks to ChatGPT/CoPilot/etc.

Choosing a stack has always been a balance between "what you are currently productive in" and "the best possible tool for the job."

These days, assuming you have a base level of skill and experience, it's like 2-10x easier to get up to speed in a brand new stack thanks to those AI coding buddies

Your current competencies still matter and always will, but today, IMO we're way more free to choose the "best" tool and assume that we can get up to speed quickly.

Putting that aside, I still think Rails is amazing for "most" webby stuff. Would consider Flask if I needed things from the Python ecosystem. Or I guess Phoenix if I needed that massive concurrency. Would pair them with Postgres and/or Redis as needed.

For frontend... Vue? Or maybe just server-side rendering if I could get away with it.

I'd use Phoenix even if I didn't need massive concurrency.
