Technology Stacks: Charting the Path for future Software Development

Technological progress has made possible many things that in previous decades could only be attributed to the imagination. Applications that have made possible the effective existence of vehicles with steering control capable of moving without a driver, devices that simplify communications by breaking down the barriers of distance by making it possible for us to see each other face to face no matter where we are on the planet, and even remote work has become possible thanks to these advances.

The field of action of technology is very coarse and it slips through the cracks. In this article we will touch on a very interesting aspect of new technologies, which is related to the foundations on which the new software is built… The piles of technology.

What are Technology Stacks?

We could say that a technology stack is the skeleton, the architecture of a mobile application or web under development. It contains the programming language on which a project is developed.

Among these we can mention, the frameworks, languages and other elements that feed the root information of the software.

In any case, the technology stack will have “readable” information for the client, since the codes and algorithms are established as deep beams of that “construction” so that it never yields, but it must be accessible to the user. To this part corresponds the HTML, JavaScript and CCS. With the help of these elements the application becomes recognizable and useful to the user through the browser.

In the case of applications developed for mobile technology, they require two or more technologies. Theinterface and the hardware can then be catalogued as a technology stack, as well as the interface or the server.

 How do they work in software development?

The technology stack is very important in the development of a software, because as we mentioned before that stack would be like the parts of a ship or a car, without which it could not advance, the database, code and programming on which they will take root.  Before developing a project we must determine which stack best fits the requirements of that software. That’s why they recommend familiarizing yourself with the technology stack to know how to make the best use of its strengths.

The advantage of the technology stack lies in its ability to provide stability and security to the software and its ability to influence the progressive positioning of your product.

However, the developer’s responsibility is to choose the best combination of technologies in order to reduce costs and development time, to provide quality applications.

Why are Technology Stacks important?

The technology stacks are the base, the structure on which your application is built. You have to take into account that the technology implemented in the development of any application will have an impact on its operation, efficiency or failure in the future.

Both the language, the framework and other software products will delimit the characteristics of the product. For example, Ruby on Rails can serve as a reference for us in terms of the framework and language.

As every structure the stack must have coherence, form, strong bases that provide stability to the rest of the application, otherwise inconsistencies could only lead to failure.

Another important aspect is to know from the beginning the purpose of the project, determine the software requirements, among the applications select those that fit the complex or simple of the project: ERP, CRM … Task reader, timer, etc.

Select the type of web applications, choose the best programming languages for front-ends and back-ends, decide the use of popular browsers of recognized and easy access such as: Windows, Linux or Android.

The ease of error elimination, testing and debugging code, as well as a programming language of practical use, are also benefits to take into account when starting the development of software with the support of the technology stack.

Another point of vital importance in relation to the technology stack has to do with its durability over time. For this you must make sure you have a stack that adjusts to new platform or framework updates, programming languages, following the current that will always move the technology forward.

In this process it is vital to verify that the tools are reliable, so that the stack continues to be compatible with future technologies.

A good guide are those technologies supported by large companies and communities, an example of this is React with the support of Facebook and Rust with the support of Mozilla. Updates at this point will not be a problem.

Now, how many types of Technology Stacks are there?

There are two types of stacks in development: The Technology Stack and the Application Stack.

The Technology Stack is linked to the development processes of any software.

But let’s see below the main Technology Stacks

Full Stack

Facilitates changes between front-end and back-end as required by the project allows to work at any level taking care of the design structure. By requiring a developer specialized in full stack saves costs. It guarantees the updating of new technologies. You can move from one task to another, which gives flexibility to the project and depending only on the own requirements that arise on the fly.

Mean Stack

It has open source frames, covers the web development cycle from client to server side with the use of JavaScript. With the use of MVC architecture, development flows more smoothly and quickly. It has pre-built testing tools and most importantly has 4 technologies merged into it: Mingo Db, Angular.JS, Express JS, and Node JS.

 Mern

As Mean Stack covers the complete development cycle, it has 4 technologies merged, has open source in frames and supports the MVC architecture.

Taking into account the importance of the technology stack, which basically brings together the technologies and tools for the development of certain applications, being in itself the structure of code on which the programming frameworks will be built, we say goodbye until a next opportunity, hoping that the information provided has been useful for our readers.
