>you don't have to worry about setting up JavaScript
Actually, you do need to worry about setting up Javascript because every company with a website uses it.
And even if you don't use javascript for your app instead you need to worry about setting up your Swift and Java environments and gradle is a pain in the ass.
>worry about crap like left-pad.
Yeah, no matter what tooling you use you need to worry about shit like left-pad. I'm sure your job lets you just add any dependencies you want to your project.
So there is a website out there (I'mma try and find it in me bookmarks): http://stackshare.io/stacks
If you can use some of its design, perhaps use its services through an API, and then use it in conjunction with a mapping service like Craigslist or Google Maps, and maybe add in LinkedIn into the picture, you would have a solid web service.
Make it before I beat you to it.
I don't think that's true - Google lists Go, Dart and Angular.js in their tech stack. I'm sure they use Python for deployment scripts and things, but I don't think it's running their core services.
Start with Sublime Text if you're on a computer that allows you to download it. It's the most popular standalone text editor for a reason.
They were acquired by Amazon for $970 million, so I'd wager they run on AWS.
And their stack share is pretty sparse, http://stackshare.io/twitch/twitch.
It would be interesting for sure!
I can also include at least Blizzard (the game company) to the list, as well as the government (Canada in this case, but without a doubt the US one too).
Someone in I believe it was /r/programming linked a while ago this website. It might not be 100% accurate in all cases but gives an indicator of what technologies some places uses.
Again though, as nutrecht said, its not always just Java. As a practical example, I work on the team developing an application in java, while working closely with at least two other teams on different stacks (.net) to integrate them.
One way to tell if a website uses java is to see if you have a jessionid in the URL or in the cookie - not exactly secure, but it would indicate that the site is using java.
Not so sure about Skill-Capped, but you can find Udemy's stack here (Python, PHP, JQuery, AngularJS, etc.). The technologies are more beginner-friendly compared to the ones used at Khan Academy, Coursera, etc. To get an idea of which language to start with though, you can try the what is the best programming language for me quiz.
Edit: formatting & listed out some of the tech used
Stackshare is a great site for seeing what tools companies are using to develop technology products.
Its a little more focused on the back end, but I think its important to see how the whole stack interacts together. And should give you some insight to your question on what front end tech large startups are using.
You can view the stacks of large scale applications like Twitter, Vine, Instagram, Dropbox, Netflix, and Facebook.
Cool thanks. I just remembered I had bookmarked Stackshare, so I looked up loader on it, and they had a few other services for performance testing. http://stackshare.io/load-and-performance-testing. I have that many bookmarks...I forget to check them. Anyway thanks again!
You might find StackShare (formerly LeanStack) useful. It's a collection of technology and business software stacks used by startups. For example, take a look at Dropbox's stack.
What do you think would be more helpful for you? Or rather, what would you like to see?
There are some comparison pages, but they serve more as a starting point (e.g. http://stackshare.io/stackups/rails-vs-django-vs-dot-net and http://stackshare.io/stackups/node-js-vs-python-vs-ruby).
~~What you need, my dear Nuffim, is CRM software (Customer Relationship Management). We've used Highrise with some success in the past, but it might not suit your needs. Here is a list of some online CRM products: http://stackshare.io/crm~~
Oops, you're using CRM already. My advice is look for CRM software that does what you need. I.e. that can work with email in the way you describe.
There’s an awesome site called stackshare.io that shows the stacks that are used by various companies. Definitely worth checking out! Here’s Reddit:
Unless someone can give you direct insight into the hiring process for your role, I would just recommend in general for any job, spend some time learning about parts of their stack you don't know about.
Sweet, check out my project, sorta similiar, e-commerce related, we're on 4 marketplaces soon to be on 5 and we're private labeling brands that span practically all lifestyles. We fulfill for 4 marketplaces and Amazon is FBA, naturally.
www.FineLineRetail.info http://stackshare.io/fineline-retail/fineline-retail (not complete, many other workflows and SaaS companies we use are not listed here, for example ChannelAdvisor)
Also if I can add on bit of advice, at least for e-commerce, though I'm sure most industries with data are similar, in that if you don't AT LEAST know excel to a point where you can do nested vlookups and pivot tables comfortably, you will have a difficult time running your op in bulk, with nominal accuracy and high defect %.
Great write-up, we should get on a Skype call and talk big business lol ;)
URL: Magazine du Webdesign Purpose: Build an online community of passionnate designers and developers around inspirations, ressources and advices. Technologies Used: stackshare Feedback Requested: contents, usability, accessibility Comments: My work during the day is UX researcher, I build this side project in the evening and weekends. I'm a self-taught developer, I tried to learn as fast as I can but development is a hard thing for my brain. The all site is build on Jekyll by myself (see stack link).
Thank you for sharing your concern. I didn't not see it from the competitor point of view. I was thinking of this http://stackshare.io when I suggested the idea. It wouldn't need an app to extract the meta information, website code should be sufficient, I think. There is nothing that is stopping someone from manually looking into your website code right now to find all your information. But I would reconsider if it does more harm than good.
Disclaimer, I work at Typeform
I don't think it really matter what the different services are built with. You have different languages/paradigms that are fit for different things.
So, in the case of Typeform, we're mostly a PHP shop, the main application over at Typeform.com is using Symfony and the packages that comes with it. Typeform I/O, the API we're building currently, is 100% golang, together with other services that we're slowly splitting out of the big PHP application.
Let me know if you want to know something else. In the end, it doesn't even matter ;)
Ps, what I can see, BuiltWith gets some right but some other things are wrong (We're not running Apache in the application, only for landing page). But, if you take a look at StackShare (which we filled out ourselves), you get the full, 100% correct picture. http://stackshare.io/typeform/typeform
Off the top of my head: The Onion/Clickhole/AV Club, Pitchfork Media, Red Hat (and tons of other languages), Mozilla (and tons of other languages), Center for Open Science, Caktus (Django consulting).
You might also want to look into devops positions with companies that use Ansible/Salt Stack if you're interested in the operations side of tech too.
And checkout stackshare
What do you want to learn? What do you want to make? How far are you in using C# and C++? Do you combine for example, networking and GUI? Learning C++ and C# never ends, since both are a huge thing and you can make anything in them. Pick what you want to work on, and then try to find the best language for the task. Check out StackShare to check what are similar sites/technologies using.
Hey, I'm an engineer at Openfolio, we're using Django/Redis/Postgres on the backend, and jQuery/HighCharts/D3 on the front end. Our full stack os on StackShare.
haven't really developed enough to have a stack, but for anyone looking check out stackshare to see some of the most popular tools and frameworks. very useful site to get ideas or see what stack certain businesses/people use
