Web development is an art which can be accomplished only by utilizing specific tools. We are going to take a quick look at the specific tools that are used by web developers for the year 2016.

  • Flux:

This is definitely what all developers use as of the day. The frameworks are in constant reinvention which can be both positive and negative for the JavaScript framework. Since it’s pretty simple and works well with React, many of the developers stick to the same.

  • Microservices:

These type of dynamic languages are worthwhile to be used in speedy recapitulation on the web. The framework is even more effective when a large project is split off into parts and worked on as smaller applications. The framework can be used using monolithic applications with API-driven modular components. The NGINX blog (This article) can give you a clear idea on the variance between monolithic architecture and microservice architecture pattern. The image below will give you an idea on a new taxi-hailing application intended to compete with Uber and Hailo.

  • React:

This framework has won the hearts and minds of the clients and developers. Though it has been around for a while it’s best suited by all developers of 2015. Frameworks such as Ember, Angular, and Meteor club well with React in terms of virtual DOM-diffing and unidirectional data flows which have made it into reality by proven patterns.

  • jQuery:

jQuery has not been doing very well though it has sustained itself as very resourceful in terms of web development for the last 10 years. Unfortunately manual DOM manipulation is not creating an oomph factor making it loose favor.

  • PHP:

PHP always takes the cake. It does have its share of drawbacks, but it does have the knack at setting things right. It serves best when it comes to feedback in loops which is all the more important when it comes to web development. The rumor around is that the tool is definitely working at getting better.

  • Go:

Most developers are happy to have Go around. They feel it’s safe and effective, and can pick up on anything that’s let go off by PHP. It’s a lifesaver and is simpler than C.
