In this article, you will build a basic quote generator application using SvelteKit and host it using Back4app Containers.

SvelteKit is a modern web application framework that builds upon the principles of the Svelte JavaScript framework. It offers developers an efficient and elegant way to create web applications with a focus on simplicity and performance.

In 2020, SvelteKit was created by Rich Harris, the creator of Svelte, and in October 2022, Rich Harris and his team joined Vercel.

When deploying a SvelteKit application, it is helpful to use the Back4app Containers. Back4app Containers is a platform that allows developers to deploy and manage containerized applications on Back4app’s infrastructure.

It is a cloud-based service that provides a simple and scalable way to run containerized applications in production.

This article will provide a comprehensive tutorial on how to build a backend for Vue.js. It will provide an overview about Vue.js, advantages and limitations, deployment methods available, and a step-by-step guide on how to build and host a Vue.js application.

Vue is a JavaScript framework for building flexible and performant user interfaces (UIs) and single-page applications (SPAs).

Vue is known for its progressive nature, which means it can be adopted incrementally into existing projects. Vue also features a declarative syntax, which allows you to describe your desired UI state and let Vue handle the underlying logic and updates.

In addition to its progressive nature and declarative syntax, Vue employs a virtual DOM, which is a lightweight representation of the actual DOM. This helps it to render and update the user interface efficiently.

When developing Vue apps, integrating a Backend as a Service (BaaS) platform like Back4app can offer several benefits, such as data storage and user authentication, which can greatly simplify development and save time. In this article, you will explore Vue and learn how to build an application with Vue using Back4app.

Angular is a popular open-source framework for building dynamic, responsive, and complex web applications. Angular was first developed by Google in 2010 under the name “AngularJS.”

Angular allows you to create dynamic, single-page applications with a clean and organized code structure.

Angular uses TypeScript, a superset of JavaScript, which adds features like type checking, interfaces, and classes to the language. This makes Angular code more maintainable and less error-prone.

To streamline web development with Angular, it’s helpful to use a Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) solution like Back4app.

Back4app provides a pre-built backend infrastructure with features such as authentication, data storage, and server-side logic.

This allows you to focus on building the front end of your applications without worrying about the complexities of backend development.

In this article, you will explore Angular and build a basic blog application using Angular and Back4app.

Go (Golang) is a programming language developed by Google in 2009 to address common issues in large-scale system development, like slow compilation and the need for concurrent programming.

The language was designed for simplicity, efficiency, and ease of use with a syntax similar to C. Additionally, Go is compiled, making it faster than interpreted languages.

One of Go’s key features is its support for concurrency which allows you to run multiple tasks simultaneously through lightweight threads called Goroutines.

Go is also known for its strong support for networking and web development. Go’s standard library is home to packages for HTTP, TCP/IP, and other networking protocols, making it easy to build networked applications.

In this article, you will explore the benefits, limitations, and deployment options for Go apps. Additionally, you’ll create, dockerize, and deploy a Go application using Back4app’s containerization service for free.

Keep reading to discover how to deploy a Go app.
