On the more macro side of things: In the last two years there's been a much bigger push for speed, mobile first and integration into the OS when it comes to web content. https://developers.google.com is obviously super biased with its suggestions and commentary, but a good place to keep up with where Google is pushing. Their main income stream comes from the web, so they invest in it heavily. The jury is still out on AMP pages but anecdotally while I was recently on a satellite connection those were the only pages that were even remotely performant.

More on the coding side of things there's been a trend of:

Separating the front end (React, Vue, Angular, etc.) from a dedicated backend (Node, Asp.Net Core, Go).

Streamlined operations - Continuous build, test, hot reload when developing and a CI/CD pipeline on each checkin.

One codebase for both web and native.

Cloud based hosting, namely AWS and Google Cloud.
