There are a lot of web frameworks available now. Django, Ruby On Rails, Google Web Toolkit etc. How do you choose which one to use? What parameters do you assess?
I prefer to cope with the requirements and availability on the client's web server. I have not got any assignment yet with Django or Ruby on Rails, but I do use the Google Web Toolkit and also some of the variations of CSS - Bootstrap, Gumby, LESS and SAASS (if you can consider these to fit in here)
I've been playing around with Django lately and really like it. Just for fun, I've been working on a bookmarking tool (like Delicious), but with Django. Once you get it setup initially and gain a bit of familiarity with it, it's pretty awesome. I had tried RoR once, but I just don't enjoy Ruby enough. I'm using Bootstrap with a site that I'm working on for a client. It's fairly useful so far. This is my first time using it, so it's kind of uncomfortable, but hopefully it'll pay off in the long run.
