I have been playing with the idea of rewriting an old web-app I made over the past 20 years. It's right now running on #LAMP and is targeted at #mobile devices, but I'd like to modernize it to use #PostgreSQL and a web #framework that's not old enough to be well into its first divorce.

I'm used to #Java + #Angular (and derivatives like #Ionic), but I'm thinking I want something new. What are people happy with (and have used for actual development beyond a Hello World tutorial)? I can Bing, so I'm more interested in real experiences. I'm not terribly interested in React or Vue, and have already given Swift/SwiftUI for iOS a spin, so I don't want that.

Should have a mobile-first #frontend, be decently mature so I don't have to rewrite in 2 years when support stops. I need a backend and Postgres access. Would like support for #PWA.

Can be Angular-based or stand-alone, can be separate backend and frontend or mixed/tag-soup/hydration-like. #Typescript or the like are fine, but not a requirement. Fuck #Erlang / #Elexir. If you're going to suggest #Go or #Rust better have a good argument because most people suggesting those are extremely annoying people. #Flutter / #Dart = yuck.

I'm using it to track goals/habits and make #charts, #statistics, and some basic machine learning (k-means, affinity propagation, GMM, and other #clustering, that sort of thing). I can program statistics and clustering myself, but a native chart library would be nice (heatmaps, line charts, bar charts/histograms, that sort of thing) and I wouldn't mind not having to implement my own probability distributions. User authentication (persistent between application restarts) is a must (by framework or popular libraries). I can do #Bootstrap, #tailwind, and other front-end #CSS, but I'd be perfectly happy not having to as long as I can make my widgets purple.

The #rennaissance Ducal Palace of Vila Viçosa at night. #portugal #braganza
#artandarchitecture

The seat of the House of Braganza , which became the reigning house in Portugal from 1640 to 1910. Construction of the #manueline #palace began during the tenure of Duke Jaime of Braganza, between 1501 and 1502. The imposing #marble #classical #mannerist facade began in 1583 consisting of two floors, one with #tuscan capitals, the other with #ionic capitals. Later, in 1610, construction began of the additional third floor. The palace was the birthplace of Catherine of Braganza, Queen Consort of England and her father John IV, King of Portugal (the first Braganza king).

These columns once graced the Grosvenor Hotel in London, until it was demolished in 1988. The stone was then used as ballast, in a ship that arrived at Swanage. The local council then acquired the columns and erected them on the waterfront, as a tourist attraction.
