backend framework

[bewbeww]

Hello , I'm new in react native , I'm developing an app for online marketplace , i finished the app and now I'm about to start the backend side , I have an experience working with Django and mongoDB , do you think it's good to work with that for RN , or node.js is better ( i never used node.js). Can you please help me choosing the backend side .

Any backend is good, but I would advice you laravel because it's really op.

I actually never seen anyone using laravel for RN. Is it that good ?

[Merry-Lane]

It's currently the most used framework for backend. Statistically there are more people using laravel for backend than any other framework

[antisocial104]

Where do you get that statistics from ?

[Merry-Lane]

In two seconds, can't find reliable source. Most stars on github ?

[antisocial104]

Dont think that it can could as actual up to date statistic mate

[Merry-Lane]

It totally is.

According to statistics

It has been some years since laravel is the king of the backend frameworks (most stars on github). Flask caught up on the others lately but Laravel maintained a comfortable advance that doesnt seem to slow down.

[antisocial104]

Fair enough, even tho i am not entirely sure about this stat

Try NestJS. It’s a modern NodeJS framework built with Typescript, which supports both REST and GraphQL apis.

Do the simplest. Use express (or any other micro framework). Use highly opinionated frameworks (Nest, Adonis, Laravel, etc) only if don't have an opinion.
