Here are the top five web development frameworks in the industry this year. The selection criteria’s are, the demand from companies and their customers, the acceptance and support among the developer community, and the job opportunities created in market.
Node JS
Lot of startups and companies vouched this framework this year. The flexibility of Node as a full stack use for back-end to cross platform mobile app development made it as one of the most preferred frameworks for everyone. this framework is very efficient scalable and easy to learn among its peers, the Rapid Application Development teams extensively using it since one framework fit for all needs. the additional advantage of V8 engine gave a major push in terms of run-time efficiency and processing time. If you are building a data intensive real-time application with a scope of scaling up, this would be an ideal choice.
Angular JS
AngularJS by google was the hottest among its peers. There is a big demand for Angular JS resources since majority of web projects are expected to include Angular. Since its engineered at google, lot of simplicity and advantages packed with it. A very generic javascript , JQuery and MVC knowledge helps developers to easily get in to the angular world. The very structured, template’s and two way binding features made it one of the best and popular javascript frameworks among the web developers. not juts a hype, but there are lot of stuffs there and more on its way.

React JS
Maintained by Facebook and a community of developers, React is still trending in creating compelling and interactive UIs in web. It’s used for handling view layer for web and mobile apps.The ability of ReactJS to update and render the right components when the data changes made the web development and web interfacing experience in to a new level. the high level of compatibility with other frameworks – or a combination of other JavaScript libraries or frameworks, such as Angular JS and MVC made it more modular and popular among companies and developers

Ruby On Rails
There was a confusion that, whether we need to include Ruby or any PHP based frameworks like Laravel or Yii. But I prefer Ruby because of some obvious reasons. This is one of the best rapid application development frameworks . Developing an app in ruby is just like a cakewalk, since a a hell lot of boiler plate codes plugins helps user to do more with less lines of code. extensive support for RESTful Api development along with agile based collaborative and flexible development philosophy made it a rock-star among frameworks. I say its worth investing your time in learning Ruby, if you are a startup or frequently building MVPs with less turn around time.

Interestingly most of the trending web development frameworks are javascript based. so learning javascript can give you a competitive edge in mastering the existing and upcoming superstar frameworks in future. even though the PHP and Python based frameworks are equally competent, javascript based ones are endorsed by the technology giants like google, facebook etc. The best bet is learning frameworks with multiple languages, gives you more flexibility and dexterity in a competitive market.
