Patryk Serafin · Computer Science and Mathematical Modelling · 2024
Modern web applications leverage a variety of frontend and backend technologies to deliver scalable, secure, and high-performance digital experiences. This paper examines key web development frameworks, highlighting their advantages, disadvantages, and optimal use cases. Frontend frameworks such as React, Angular, and Vue.js are analyzed in terms of interactivity, modularity, and scalability, while backend solutions like Django, Node.js, Flask, and Spring Boot are evaluated for security, performance, and data management capabilities. Additionally, the paper explores technology selection criteria based on application complexity, real-time processing requirements, and scalability needs. Special attention is given to security and performance considerations, emphasizing best practices for mitigating vulnerabilities and optimizing resource efficiency. The study concludes with insights into emerging trends in web development, including microservices, serverless computing, and AI-driven applications. By providing a structured comparison of modern web technologies, this paper serves as a guide for developers and businesses seeking to make informed decisions in selecting the right stack for their specific requirements.
