Top 5 Web Development Frameworks in 2018

Pacing up with latest technology and innovations is very important in any field. The Web is growing day by day and every business is growing through online now a days. So building a feature-rich application is getting more complicated. Nowadays it’s not that easy to satisfy any clients with the basic knowledge because everyone wants to see their work updated as per the latest technological trends. So a web developers must be well updated with the latest web development frameworks.

Design of a website, database configuration, web APIs, caching, website services, etc are the basic processes during the web development. All these are done by a web developer .Web development frameworks helps the developer to simplify these web development processes. Actually these activities are automated by using the frameworks. So many web development frameworks are available nowadays. Hence,  It is a difficult task for the programmer to choose the right one for the web project.

Below are listed top ten web development framework trending in 2018:

AngularJS

AngularJS is one of the top latest web development technologies. It is a JavaScript open-source framework which is a Google product. It uses MVC (Model-View-Controller) architectural pattern and the framework is designed particularly for single-page web applications. This is not a full-stack, but a front-end framework dealing basically with your web pages. Angular 4 is the latest version of AngularJS.

Features :

• Using templates, you’ll be able to show information from model and controller
• The developer just needs to split an app into MVC components and all others are managed by the framework.
• In between curly braces the expressions are like code snippets that enclosed and do not use any loops or conditional statements. Just on the contrary, they’re used to format data and display it.

Laravel

Laravel is one of the best back-end frameworks using which you can easily develop the web and mobile applications for small websites and big businesses. It is actually a free, open-source PHP web framework which uses model–view–controller (MVC) architectural pattern.

Features:

• Route caching: It helps to speeds up the application route registration in such a projects which have large numbers of routes.
• Inbuilt Authentication System:For any web application Authentication is very crucial part but Laravel 5.1, as it comes with inbuilt authentication. Only things a developer can do is to configure database, controllers, models.
• Multiple file system support: This frameworks uses a third party package Flysystem to provide support for multiple files.
• Improved method injection: Laravel 5.0.1 framework had a great improvement in method injection

React.js

React.JS is a front-end open source JavaScript library which is maintained by Facebook. It is a library but it can be convertible to a web development framework. It is created in order to maintain user interface based web applications like Facebook. This particular framework was invented with a purpose to handle large applications in running, maintaining and updating it over time inclusive of data included. Developing some challenging and real time applications by implementing complex algorithm was the main idea behind React.js. Facebook is the living example of this.

Features:

• Virtual DOM : Virtual DOM is a programming concept which uses the reconciliation process. That means a virtual representation of a UI(user interface) is kept in memory and synced with the real DOM by the library. DOM( Document Object Model) is the way a document is accessed and manipulated. DOM manipulation is a time taking process in every application. In React a virtual DOM is kept with the real DOM in order to quickly update the original DOM because nothing gets drawn onscreen.
• Declarative: The declarative nature makes the code more readable and easier to debug.
• JSX : It is a markup syntax which is a combination of JavaScript + XML . It makes it easier and faster to write templates for the developers.

Node.js

For client-side programming languages JavaScript can be regarded as the King. Node.js is built on Google Chrome's JavaScript run-time. It actually allow you to write server-side applications with JavaScript, but the JavaScript language primarily is built to run on the client-side. Node.js is used for easily building fast and scalable network applications. Its event-driven, non-blocking I/O model makes the framework lightweight and efficient. For data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices Node.js is the best option as it’s a cross-platform run-time environment for developing server-side and networking applications.

Features:

• Asynchronous and Event Driven − All APIs of Node.js library are asynchronous, that is, non-blocking. The server based on Node.js will not wait for an API to return data. As it is event driven, the event helps the server to get a response from API call.
• Single Threaded but Highly Scalable − Node.js uses single threaded model but its highly scalable . Event Driven mechanism helps the server to respond in a non-blocking way and this makes the server highly scalable .
• Very Fast − Node.js is built on Google Chrome's V8 JavaScript Engine, so that its very fast in code execution.
• No Buffering − The applications which uses this framework, simply output the data in chunks.

Ruby on Rails (RoR)

This is one of the popular framework in web development field. It is built from a well-known programming language called Ruby. Ruby on Rails is server-side web development framework. It includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC).

Features:

• Suitable for all business: Ruby is a flexible programming language which is suitable for all business industries. Whether it’s a project management or a site building platform RoR is a good option.
• RoR framework is pretty stable and predictable, so that it is easy to modify the existing code or add features. For long-term projects RoR is a good option.
• Fast website development. Due to its lean code base, RoR minimizes time on website development in about 30–40%.
• Database Access Library: Active Record is a database access library in RoR. It simplifies data handling in databases. It automatically creates tables to classes and rows to objects in a database.
