- NodeJS, Typescript, Docker

- Fastify for the API

- Sequelize for ORM (Prisma seems like a good choice too but comes with too many features imo)

- Postgres (locally rn)

- AtlasDB for migration (I like the declaration style)

- Hosting didn't choose yet but would go with vercel or free tier GCP

Im proefficient with JS so that explains the why, however in 10 years the ecosystem still didn't catch with Rails in term of having one solution to all problems.

You still have to carefully choose your dependencies, all tutorials are quickly outdated and it's missing some crucial pieces that you have to glue manualy or code entirely.
