If your project mirrors that of a certain company, you may want to research their tech stack. Generally, some of the most common tech stacks you will see are MEAN, Python-Django and Ruby on Rails.

Python has become very popular for tech stack developers because of its usage for machine learning and data science. Now, it’s one of the fastest-growing languages.

"Of course, software engineers and full-stack developers, to name two common tech job titles, increasingly use Python. And those same workers use AWS a lot too," writes Flowers.

Python “has a healthy, friendly community around it, including, for example, communities built for those who are underrepresented in tech,” Silge said.
