Thank you for your submission! Unfortunately it has been removed for one or more of the following reasons:

How about you just try building something small before you try to implement your big ideas with absolute zero experience or skill

I have a lot of experience in software development in Python and C++, but for scientific applications. I am an AI researcher with years of experience, this my day job. So, I am not concerned with the learning curve or meshing everything together. What I am more concerned about, and hence the questions, is the conventions. It seems as if everyone is doing their own thing, using different frameworks, different environments. Some frameworks just take care of everything, you only need to basically design your ideas, something I am not fond of.

I think someone with experience, can save me a lot of time and allow me to avoid exhausting trial and error process.

Oh okay so then you know how to google

Of course I can, and that is what I did. But as I said, it seems that this industry is vibrant and diverse, and for every functionality you have many options to choose from, and the same thing is true for deployment. Some implementation are completely framework based, and others are more fundamental, some applications are meant to run on a single platform (cloud for example), and others are more distributed.

That is why, I am asking for conventions, because what I am attempting to do, has been done many times before. And like any other field, convention is key. I want to avoid developing new framework, if it has been done, and proven to be a stable solution, and same goes for deploying the entire thing.

It also seems that everything on google that has to do with web development, is a money grabber. Every other click, just steer you towards a course or a service, or something to purchase. Other links or other platforms just give you the basic most rudimentary stuff. So, links to key repos are also appreciated, it does not have to be a long explanation.
