Darshan Hiranandani - How do I choose the right framework for web development?

Hey everyone, I’m Darshan Hiranandani

One of the critical decisions we face as web developers is selecting the right framework for our projects.

How do you typically approach this decision-making process? What factors do you consider when choosing a framework? Let’s share our insights and experiences to help each other navigate this important aspect of web development!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

When deciding which web development project framework is most suitable for a web project, the first thing that comes to my mind is the special requirements and objectives of the project. Key aspects that I consider in my decision-making are the scope and degree of the project, the tech team’s skill set concerning particular frameworks, and the presence of community, support, and documentation concerning the framework. I also look at performance requirements, the project’s backend’s interaction with third-party services, and the simplicity of the integration with other services. Moreover, I give a lot of thought to the future of the framework, such as if it is an active, constant, and stable developer. I have often extravagantly mentioned other solutions as well, those that require more participation. For example, React or Django has helped me solve issues or can be utilized with great features for my job. The end game is to identify a capable framework that will be key to the project’s successful implementation, rigorous, and growth-friendly.
