hey all, anyone else feel the paradox of choice with tech stacks for side projects? sometimes simpler is better. what's your go-to stack when you just want to get an idea out fast? would love to swap notes and learn from each other's shortcuts.

rails + psql + render/heroku + maybe firebase + html5 template

Pretty much this or the Django equivalent, because I've used both for a while and know enough to be able to make stuff without thinking too hard about the stack. The answer should really just be "whatever stack you're most comfortable with" - you should be focusing on getting the product done rather than trying to figure out how to use the shiny tech

Can you elaborate on the html5 templates? Where do you get yours from?

It's 2023, and the 2013 stack is still king.
