Ask HN: How many languages/frameworks do you regularly use?
5 comments
I've been using Javascript more than anything for the past 3-4 years. Still using Perl on the server side.
Aside from those I use HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap and jQuery on the front end.

Java + little bit of Spring.
C + a lot of Autosar
Both for backend development.
Not planning to dive into another language or framework in 2019

I use Java, Groovy, Python and - to lesser extent - Javascript, on a regular basis. In terms of frameworks, I regularly use Grails, Spring Boot, and, uh, that's about it.
Note that I don't do a lot of front-end heavy stuff, and when I build web based UI's they're usually done with fairly simple HTML/CSS + Bootstrap and jQuery. I have been intended to learn either React or Vue, but haven't found time to really dig in yet.

I basically use Nim for everything. Of course I am one of the core Devs and creators of many of the frameworks that are available so I'm pretty biased. If you've got some time do give Nim a try :)
You seem to have a lot of experience so I would urge you to write about what you thought of all these frameworks. I'd be interested to read your thoughts on them all.

Regularly I use Android with Java at work, and Kotlin for side projects.
I currently have apps using Go, Java/Javalin/Spring, Elixir/Phoenix on the back-end and Kotlin/Android, Swift/iOS, Dart/Flutter, Vue/TypeScript or React/JS on the front-end.
I'm also exposed to some Ruby/Rails but planned this year to use a lisp (likely Clojure). Others I looked at but will not likely use soon include GDScript/Godot, Elm, ReasonML, PureScript, F#, Racket/Scheme, Crystal/Kemal/Lucky/Amber, and Pony. Ones I haven't yet even looked at are Nim, D, Rust, C#/.NetCore.
Even this many going foward still seems to be too many for projects. If Go2 was done or Java value-types then maybe those could collapse together.
