I am thinking of creating a boilercode for python + Typescript apps. I see a lot of typescript app boilercodes and not too much python, is python hated by solopreneurs?

Typescript ❤️

Python 🤪

Yes we do.... But when you say boilerplate, what all you planning to include

When I use Python, one of the reasons I appreciate it is that it generally doesn't require a lot of boilerplate.

Also ai/ml/nlp libraries is huge - i dont belive js/ts has or would ever get on par with that.

I use both equally. For my data related research work, I use python. All my side projects, including the ones I want to link my python work, I use TS/JS. I came across some combinations using python/dash etc. But if you’re working on combining TS and Python, I’d be one of the first ones to try :)

I like Python, but using Node.js for backend development creates a more unified and efficient tech stack.

If you know Python, , there's really no reason not to use it. It's has a big, helpful community.

Something to push out a MVP quick and then also have the ability to move it easily to fulfill Enterprise needs later? Heck yeah, Python it is, and that is why we love it!

I hate python, but I don't particularly like TS either, but its better than JS.

I avoid interpreted languages. There's a price to pay for that, but if you're building for the long haul you want to dodge the pythons.

Do you work on web development? What language / framework do you use for backend?

[–] alejandrobrega@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Python is great but TS has better frameworks like nextjs .

[–] Ok_Net_6384@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Why would it be hated? It's great for many things, one of them being building things fast.

[–] innovatekit@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I use it for every thing!

[–] bytepursuits@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I much prefer python on backend.

I've been using it for my projects and actually even created a boilerplate: https://github.com/igorbenav/FastAPI-boilerplate

Absolutely, especially cuz u can take existing tools and break them apart and adjust
