Jeff was trying to point out the differences between these frameworks but I was just noticing how similar they all actually are. If you know MVC, you can pretty much figure out what's happening in any of them.
No, not really. The Go gin framework is not even close to Rails or Django for example.
@@w2lkm2n Gin is explicitly noted to be an exception that doesn't use MVC. Edit: out of the box
@@w2lkm2n Yes. Gin is closer to Sinatra or Flask
because it's the same concept, separate the models (objects based on database), views (frontend for final user) and controllers (for connect the interaction from the users to the interfaces and get the models). Then we have bins (probably for automatization), app config, some template (to avoid write the same html over and over again) and other more specific web config (like public folder).
Lets all protest to consolidate languages/frameworks, its getting really crazy out there. Instead of spending time learning new languages we could use it for our leisure/life.
You have absolutely aced the concept of producing witty yet highly informative media in the most digestible, efficient manner possible. Big kudos for that. Keep up the great work.
it's as if OP have to train that as a skill to write highly instructional, efficient codes to thrive as a programmer.

Amazing video. Showed me how to kickstart a project in any of those languages and also a high level insight into how it feels to use them and how opinionated each framework is, which could take years to learn on my own. You're a blessing. Thanks
One would always wonder whether Jeff learned all these languages and frameworks so that he can teach us in 100s.
Lol
“Learn”, it is just the basics for a YT video, man!
He didn't learn he simply tried to recreate the same app using different frameworks and then talked about the experience for the most part. Not hating just making this clear so you don't get discouraged
@@TopBagon @xdrap1 I consider that I learnt a language when I can successfully create a working app with it. But yes, we *master* a language with lot more time than "basics" Have you created a full working app for each one of these language ? I personally don't have the courage and the patience to do so, and I suppose you as well
Based on the code he added himself to the Laravel setup, I can tell you he has no experience in neither Laravel nor PHP. So I'm kinda hesitating whether he is the right one to judge ... :/

Something like this deserves way more attention. It really gives a nice overview of all these frameworks and their ways of doing things.
Thanks for showing Rails and Phoenix some love! Excited for Elixir in 100s!
This is probably your best video so far! Thanks a lot for the huge amount of work!
I cannot imagine the time and mental effort you spent to make this video. For each one of those frameworks you found out the way to make a full stack (scalable) application. Just to mention, I've tried Golang without any previous experience using Gin and it took me many days to finish the setup properly (without any ORM as you did). Awesome work Jeff :)
I had my first experience with golang, building a web app too, but I used Fiber and Arango and I tried it with Hasura too. Honestly, I nearly prefered it to any JS framework or Laravel which I had experience prior. the only thing I had a hard time with was doing a loadbalancer
Scalable is very relative term, not all of them are out of box scalable and also scalable in terms of what? You have to wire them according to usecase. At the end of the day, you need your app to serve desired load smoothly, regardless what's used inside or how it distributes it. Keep in mind that a single problem can have hundreds of solutions and different people will come up with different implementations.
I can imagine him struggling 95% of his time googling rust stuff instead of writing rust
I felt that Rust section. Tried it myself and basically came to the same conclusion with Rocket and Diesel. Especially Diesel is such an overkill with an entire CLI if you just want to create a simple application. I found Actix and sqlx to be much more minimal and simple to use.
As Jeff himself said, it really is because Rust is much more low level than the competition. Rust is an amazing language that has many usecases, but I don't think I'll ever choose Rust for web development besides maybe some computationally heavy APIs. I think it's funny he mentioned Rust, when he choose to skip C, C++ and other low level languages. :P
@@lauej You don't need to write low level code in rust. Just because you have control over life of your variables doesn't mean its TOO COMPLICATED. Rust has many abstractions and libs that provide this abstractions
Rust is my personal favorite language for writing web applications. The nonexistence of null, unchecked exceptions, and data races help me really make sure the code is correct, which I think is necessary for a web application. Rust makes it hard to get your program to compile, but that's because the compiler already knows that your code won't work.
I did something very similar. I started with actix and Diesel, but using an ORM was too restrictive and bulky, SQLx was a nice replacement. I tried Rocket for a while, but I ran into a lot of issues, and ended up sticking to actix. In the end tho, I'm very happy I learned Server-side web development with Rust, it was a bit painful, but I learned a lot and trying to use something like JavaScript is very frustrating for me now.
@@lauej yeah this is the way tbh. Just use rust for performance crucial areas.
This must have taken soooooo much time and work. Another fantastic, funny and useful video, thank you!
I didn't have an easy time learning Thymeleaf either when I first tried it out, but honestly, it's hands down the most powerful templating framework I've ever used. It's re-usability is mind blowing, you can dynamically template html tags from different html pages by using a selector, it's ridiculous.
In Java, "decorators" are called "annotations" (but they are essentially the same).

I love the fact how your videos are getting more and more funny and do not lose a bit from being informative. You are my favourite IT youtuber
I feel comforted by Jeff also struggling with getting a working Rust web app
Same here, I'm convinced rust is like the final boss of all practical programming languages when it comes to making anything in it that works. It's a truly magical language. It has a magical way of making you feel stupid at every turn.
@@ctleans6326 it’s like a martial arts teacher. it will fuck you up and beat the shit out of you at every turn, but listen to his every instruction, learn strict discipline, and dedicate actual time in training, things just work. everything starts to make sense, including its complaints.
Hey I'm the author of the Packt textbook Rust and web programming. I suggest you focus on handling the borrow checker, structs, and then traits. Web programming Rust frameworks are very reliant on traits. It's classic to implement a trait for middleware etc. This makes it a high entry point but once you get this, you'll actually be able to develop apps quicker than when you code in a language like Python. I've had over 5 years of python web programming experience and I can now code web apps in Rust faster than I can code in Python due to trait implementations. Also, the async for rust is amazing. Currently talking with O'Reilly to write a book on async rust
I used to roast Java a lot as a joke but when our company decided that our next app will be written in spring, I was fascinated on how the code just made more sense. It taught me discipline on how I wrote code. And I just love it.
The Best code is the code that you no need to write! From this perspective Java is obviously not a winner with their hundreds of hundreds lines for every even trivial thing, but for someone like you who Loved it, is the Only thing that matters and I'm sure it is Great! We all are so different and this is the salt of the Life! :)
Spring rocks. I used Django for months and loved it, but after trying out Spring I never turned back, while Java has a lot of boilerplate (and it shouldn't) I find Spring to be the most enjoyable experience for backend development I ever had
@@vasiovasio you would be surprise if you knew how much code you actually write with spring. It may have a lot of lines, but 95% of it is auto generated.

Yes, Ruby on Rails is way better than everything else. All other frameworks are toys in comparison.
If you can still find jobs with it but it is a lot less than in 2015 from what I heard.
@@furo.v why?
I used Spring, Phoenix, Rails and a little asp by now and they all have their strengths and weaknesses. Personally i like Phoenix the best. Like elixir has heavy influences from ruby Phoenix has influences from Rails. I like to think of it as a functional highly scaleable version of ror. It is also by far the most pragmatic language and framework i know of.
I like Elixir and Phoenix very much, but unfortunately the language is too young to get all the attention it deserves
As a Laravel developer I feel proud to have a video where it's shown. :D
I second that!
What do you recommend me to learn laravel or Django. I know PHP well and python too.
@@itsankitbhusal laravel will be easier to learn but django is fast compared to laravel, but if you want to develop api then you can learn FastAPI, it uses python
@@ShailendraSharmaDark I want to develop rest API and use it with react
@@ShailendraSharmaDark Any latest benchmarks between Laravel and Django? The benchmarks I could find are all old and there have been several improvements to speed on both frameworks.

I'd love to see a top 10 of JavaScript database integration libraries. Had to learn django for work and the whole admin interface was amazingly useful and extendable. Something I'd love to have for JS frameworks, e.g sveltekit
I'm looking forward to this. Next.js would be my top Web Framework the day I know which database integration approach is the best
@@AmirIskandar exactly, the problem with all the frameworks is the workaround required for advanced frontend manipulation, the problem with JS frameworks is how unclear the data layer is. Just give me objects, relationships to other objects, and ways to do CRUD operations on them in an easy to use fashion. Django has all the others beat there.
Jeff already mentioned Prisma, Sequelize is also fine but I'd take a serious look at supabase. It's not an ORM, but a full fledge firebase alternative. It's got its own integration libraries and postgres (that's what's under the hood) can pretty much replace mysql for any workload. plus you get an auth server, realtime db events and block storage.
TypeORM its does the job for me, and it has a nice integration with NestJS. I've been using both for the last 3 years, i think you'll like it.
wow that was a super good overview of em. i noooticed you started with rails :)
This is my favourite channel. I especially like it when you explain everything so nicely. I wish you a lot of success with the channel and happy life. ❤️
Good video, like this format! Can you make video about python FastApi? That's be interesting i think. Thanks for your work.
Would definitely recommend Phoenix, you can save so much time in ops. Elixir makes it very easy to write concurrent code so you can totally skip job queues and redis and just use the language itself. The language looks like Ruby due to syntax but it’s very “no bullshit”, way lower in magic, and the best standard library I’ve ever seen.
yeah coming from a huge legacy rails codebase and going to phoenix was amazing. maybe rails is good for getting started but Elixir being functional, with phoenix, gets rid of a whole class of problems you might get from using a huge rails codebase, because of rails magic and OOP style
Any suggestions on where to start with Elixir?

@@_zetrax hahahahaha
is there a web framework for assembly?
I just remembered I spent 5 years of collegue learning C++ as the main language just to end up writting PHP for a living
Dude it was awesome!!! Need to enroll to any course made by you!! Greetings from Bolivia! So far I agree with you rails is magic, in fact rails is also considered as a frameworks of frameworks!
Nice video and the time to develop all the solutions must be fact to consider to start a comparison, also a table would be helpful to decide based in facts like time to build, performance, starting time, etc.
One particularly good feature of Phoenix is contexts. Rocket and Diesel are very good they are not async and Diesel doesn’t support sql check. I’d go for Actix and Sqlx. Nice to see a video about Vapor, a nice DSL is Swift2Html, which is way better than leaf.
I use laravel for everything, and 2 things I can point out that are very good. 1, the docs is super clear can be read by a 4 year old. 2, I’m slowly refactoring my apps to spa and with other frameworks I would have to do it all at once, with laravel I can do one component at a time etc
Great video man!
Great video!
I think most big projects can be done quite nicely in almost all bigger frameworks. It's kind of preference at a certain point. Also once you master one framework completely, it's very hard to switch. E.g. re-learning how to do routing, caching, database modelling, session handling, form validation, file storage handling, emailing, tasks & queues, user authentication, hosting and deployment etc etc takes so much time.
Wouldn't it be easier though? Since you understand the fundamental functionality.
I just made a java rest api using spring boot. Gotta say its the best. Handled db and also a websocket sessions.
I keep watching your videos to keep my passion in programming intact.
So much work for one video; hat's off Jeff!
I like how you say, "Batteries Included", and that's how I like my frameworks i.e Django for all things server-side and Angular for all things frontend
Personally one of my favorite frameworks is Django because of the vast amount of documentation it has and the vast libraries has. I literally sometimes don't have to code new features, I just use a package. It makes it very easy to quickly develop an website.
Pretty much all frameworks/languages have a vast "package ecosystem". Rails has gems, Vapor has SPM, Rust has cargo, Javascript has NPM, etc.
@@danbo967 yes, but I feel like django is really modular and popular. As a result of this modularity and popularity, there are a lot of packages that are very easy to integrate with existing projects. Maybe I'm wrong though- I don't really have any experience with the other frameworks; honestly the best framework is the one you know and understand the best :)
@@dheirya Django is popular but all language are easy to integrate. I would even argue some language are even slightly easier to integrate than Python because you don’t have to manually add the package to your file and declare the package in the middleware. Rails for example automatically adds packages to your project no need to register packages in the settings same with Javascript. PS: I am not talking about the best framework/language here. This is just some insight into other languages and frameworks. Personally I think that we shouldn’t be defensive with our tech stack because the beauty of software engineering is to take and implement good ideas regardless of language/framework.
@@danbo967 I do agree with you that there really is no "best" framework/language. Whatever works for you is the best framework really. Additionally, I can't comment on the easiness and packages that other frameworks have but for a beginner like me, django has great libraries and packages that can be easily shared through PIP and requirements.txt files. This is my own story but recently I wanted to add my own login with email functionality and I found three packages I could use. I tried all of them and one of them worked perfectly in my case. The point: All frameworks are good if you know what you're doing basically.
@@dheirya Definitely, my only beef with Django is that I don’t like that you have to manually add each app and package in your config/settings.py to include it into your project. Also it happens sometime that you have to pay attention to the order in which you add them to the “INSTALLED_APPS” or “MIDDLEWARE” lists. Also Django uses the MVVM pattern which isn’t as intuitive for me as the MVC pattern. But other than that Django is great.
dude I swear this is the best content I've ever watched on KZhead
Dude, your videos are so good.
I've used half of these and Laravel by far is my favorite.
Agreed! Laravel’s ecosystem is incredible... Eloquent is amazing and makes me feel extremely productive using it. The whole Laravel experience is a real pleasure, and has helped seriously drive the modernisation of PHP.
Same with me.
Same. Lots of features baked in, and still it's intuitive to work with. Simple, elegant, not overwhelming. Great docs too
It has a terrible project structure... heavily dislike php
@@HyuLilium a feature-packed framework is bound to have a few more folders. I’ve worked with Laravel for 7 years and whilst it drops a bunch of folders in to keep things organised by default, you’re free to move, delete or restructure most of them however you like.
I'd really recommend people give Ruby a go. It's a truly beautiful and well thought out language
I would have done so, but unfortunately, job postings are continuously in decline and I'm at a point where I need to invest what little time I have left in as few languages as possible.
I think I will stick to Python for data science and small scripts, so before learning Ruby for web development, I think I would rather use Flask or Django.

This is a good content, the joke about your startup failure is not really based on your selected framework :) you can choose whatever you want and grow your stack/technology along the way, the truth is you won't be using MVC too much as your product/tech stack grows.

I fell in love with laravel when I got started at version 6, been using react for a wile and just got back and it's like coming home. Nothing can't beat the Eloquent ORM! But laravel doesn't come with a database, just the universal ORM 😊
Yes when you work with laravel. Other frameworks looks kinda frustrating to you. Laravel is love.
Honestly, it's by for the best framework I've worked with so far. It's easy to use, the documentation is fenominal and working with databases is not a Hassel. Also if you implement a frontend framework, that's easy too
Django ORM, migrations, signals, models and forms, mixins, are all amazing. With just four-five lines of code you can generate a CRUD. Maybe the template is the not that advance component, but still a great framework
Worm, migrations, model and forms exists in all framework. Like java+spring, C# and PHP+Laravel for sure.

+1 for NextJS. I've never felt that a web framework was as intuitive as Next is, and I hope the project is solid into the future.
You should try Rails then. I learned Rails first and then moved to Python/Javascript but to be honest nothing has been as intuitive and easy/quick to build with as Rails. You can pick it up in a week if you already know a programming language. The scaffolding feature makes it super fast to build apps because it generates a model/controller/view with all CRUD operations/routes/tests and migration for your database with a single command.

The most important thing is now whether it can be learned in an afternoon, and used by someone who doesn't understand it well, and ruby doesn't try to be any of those things - it appreciates that some people will have to spend a lot of time with a language, and the best thing to optimize in that situation is not ease of learning, but pleasantness to use once proficient. Few languages come close to ruby on that.
Well done sir. Well done 🔥
Very good video and informative 🔥
I'll save you some time reading these comments, half of them will be X Framework or language is so amazing and the other half will be it doesn't matter what you use.
36 comments rn might as well just scroll through each lol
If you're going to include Gin, you should also mention Flask and FastAPI, both using Python. Both are minimal, build-as-you-go, semi-frameworks that are quite easy to use to for simple apps.
I love flask so much.
FastAPI is by far one of the most impressive frameworks in town! Love it!
flask is my fav framework it is minimal yet so powerful and flexable
sinatra in ruby
Had the same thought. I use exclusively Gin or Flask right now depending on the project. I really prefer having minimal structure so I can choose how to set everything up myself
Now a video on 10 smaller frameworks for different languages~ I'm a happy Flask user here, but It'd be nice to know what else exists over yonder.
i like your videos they make me learn and make my day better!
Rails is the best especially for small apps. I learned it in a coding bootcamp and built a few apps with it. At work, we use spring in which i have a love/hate relationship with. Spring can be really simple and way overcomplicated all at the same time. Its hard to explain
That's literally Java, the good thing is that the more complex the project gets, the less "the curve of complexity rises" when using Java, if that makes any sense.
You should definitely give Phoenix a try then. It is great for both small and large apps because of the features of the language itself.
Right small web apps. Fir scalable, robust apps which later can be done on mobile c# is best.
Yes it is hard to explain, isn't it? Lots of subtle little things to get wrong despite the code appearing simple. For me, Hibernate is the chief culprit. I would give anything for the project I am working on not to have chosen it. But from a larger standpoint, annotation based coding gives me the heebies. It's like a dynamic language but somehow worse and less predictable. It sacrifices all the advantages of Java. And from an even larger standpoint, it is frequently impossible to find solutions for common web app issues. I know people are using spring to build huge enterprise crap, but from what I can Google it's only toy apps, and fixing N+1 queries is like rocket science to these people.
@@arrrryyy I think Shopify has more than demonstrated that Rails apps do not have to be small at all.
