The content of that page was entirely maintained and kept up by the Semantic Web community at large. However, the technology behind ESW Wiki makes that site relatively slow to use and it also lacks many features that would make a better management of such lists.
Consequently, it was decided to move the content of that page to this site. This, plus the possibilities offered by Semantic Media Wiki, makes it possible to have better search, export of data, etc. The initial content on tools on this Wiki is identical to the old ESW Wiki page, except that each tool has its own page.
The only exception is the few tools listed on the old page that seem to have gone out of existence or where the old URIs delivered no results. From Semantic Web Standards.

A considerable increase of 7 million daily active users in only five months. Teams offer users a free tier, including 2GB of storage for individuals and 10GB for teams. Zoom is the market leader in video conferencing. It is simple to use and offers unmatched quality and functionality. As Zoom grows in popularity, so does its price.
I used Google Hangouts three years ago. It was a horrible experience. I hated it. I moved to Zoom, and my mind was at ease. To our surprise, it worked perfectly. We were pleasantly surprised. We bought into the G Suite ecosystem, and as you can guess, all Google tools play nice with each other. For example, Google Hangouts seamlessly integrates with Google Calendar, which makes organizing calls a doddle.
Prototyping is an intrinsic part of the web design and development process. It is a platform to communicate what your product does and gather feedback from your team and users. Adobe has been around for many years and is undoubtedly the number one developer of designer tools Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere.
For me, it is the most performant of all the tools in this list and offers a familiar interface. In my opinion, it provides the best user experience and has the cleanest UI. It is important to note; I am currently the only designer working with XD.
If and when we hire another designer, I will consider moving to Figma as it offers a collaborative working environment. Figma is a web application accessed via a browser, meaning Windows, Apple, and Linux users can gain access. Multiple users can access Figma anywhere, on multiple devices, and at the same time! For design teams working on the same project, this is extremely helpful. Figma is free for up to two editors and three projects. Sketch was the number 1 tool of choice for prototyping for many designers for many years.
However, lately, Figma and Adobe XD have stolen the hearts of many designers and are now competing and overthrowing Sketch as the number 1 tool. Sketch is still a popular and powerful prototyping tool for designers. Sadly, it is still only available on Mac, which is one reason the likes of Figma and Adobe XD have grown in popularity. Sketch has a great community with many plugins to help you with your prototyping workflow. At Budibase, we use Miro to sketch and discuss designs quickly, which fits perfectly with our development process Shape Up.
Since the moment I used it, I loved its flexibility and simplicity. A low code platform removes a lot of the heavy leg work associated with developing web applications and replaces it with a graphical user interface. With a low-code platform, it is easier and faster to build web applications. They are a great way to build an interactive MVP and web application in a short amount of time and with relative ease.
Budibase is a rapid development tool combining the functionality of many of the tools listed below, and delivering them to the user in one simple platform. Budibases helps developers, product managers, and technical entrepreneurs build, launch, and grow web applications.
It covers backend and frontend development and is a lot easier and faster than traditional programming. Very soon, users will be able to build, host, and analyse there web app within Budibase. If you are interested, signup using the form in the footer. Visual studio code VS Code , developed by Microsoft, includes support for debugging, embedded Git control and Github, code completion, and a suite of plugins to enhance user experience and workflow.
The editor is powerful, offers an unmatched developer experience in my opinion , and has a growing ecosystem with thousands of 3rd party themes, extensions, and tools available to help you customize your experience. Rollback the years, a common argument amongst developer channels was Atom vs. Atom has excellent extensions and unsurprisingly plays well with Github. Sublime is faster. Possibly the quickest editor on the list. Repository management systems are a crucial component of the development lifecycle because they help you manage changes to source code over time.
They are the ultimate source of truth when things go wrong and can be a lifesaver when we make mistakes simply revert to an earlier version.
Below are two leaders in the repository management arena, and both use Git - an open-source version control system. Github is a development hub where developers store their projects.
Github has over 40 million users and more than million repositories. Users can collaborate and discuss previous changes, issues, and plans.
Until recently, Github only charged for private repositories. Now, and since Microsoft took over, it is now free to store your projects in public and private repositories on Github - a huge benefit for users.
On a different note, Github has recently announced its plans to store open-source repositories in their Arctic Vault Program. Gitlab is very similar to Github in many ways. It is a web-based DevOps lifecycle tool providing users with a repository manager, wiki, issue-tracking, and many other features. Gitlab is very open with its communications, and you can openly read their strategy. To summarise, both tools are incredible and offer similar functionality.
If you are collaborating with several developers, maybe choose Github. A package manager is a combination of tools that automate the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing programs. Today, I will focus on two JavaScript package managers.
NPM hosts over 1,, packages making it the most populated package manager. NPM, as you can probably guess, is the default package manager for Node. NPM has improved the speed of the package manager in the latest release, but it is still not as quick as Yarn.
With the future release NPM v7, NPM will refactor the installer, which will add consistency and speed and makes a lot of desirable features better and easier to implement. As a backend developer, it can sometimes feel overwhelming when you consider the number of tools available. This list is only a snippet of the available tools out there, so you must do your research.
Koa is a framework for Node. We love Koa at Budibase because it does not bundle middleware within its core, and it provides a simple environment for writing servers quickly. Express is a great alternative, but we feel Koa offers a better opportunity for cleaner, more readable code.
Ruby On Rails shortened to just Rails is a powerful and quick way to build web applications. Rails is opinionated, which is excellent for beginners as it makes a lot of the tough decisions for you. One of Rails core concepts is the MVC design pattern, which separates an application into models, controllers, and views. This separation improves scalability, ease of maintenance, and reusability. One area Rails does not perform well, is speed. MySQL is excellent if you are just starting, and your database is not going to scale much.
MongoDB is a general-purpose, document-based, distributed database. Postman is a collaboration platform for API development. Over 10 million developers have used Postman, producing over million APIs.
Frontend development is an ever-changing environment, with new tools appearing daily, making it hard to identify the beauty amongst the chaos. Thankfully, I have included five tools that I can vouch for and will help you kickstart your frontend development. Svelte is a frontend framework and the new kid on the block.
Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue work on the Virtual Dom, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app. Svelte is super performant, and the bundle size is small vs. With Svelte, you can adapt components within a store and subscribe to store values easily. It is still early days for Svelte, but as the community grows and they add TypeScript functionality, I feel it will become the JavaScript framework of choice for developers.
React is a JavaScript framework create by Facebook. It has over k stars on Github and was downloaded 6,, times in the last week. It is, without doubt, the leading JavaScript Framework, and has a very active community. React recently launched hooks, which, in my opinion, are one of its most significant benefits.
With hooks, you can use state, and other React features without writing a class resulting in a better experience. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript and was created by Microsoft in In the last 24 months, it has risen in popularity to become one of the most popular languages among developers.
Other frameworks, such as Vue and Angular, use TypeScript. JavaScript was never supposed to be a language for building large web applications and lacks certain functionality. TypeScript solves these issues and makes it easier for building large web applications. From my experience, the biggest benefit of Typescript is how it makes code easier to read and understand. Material Design is a design language created by Google in Material design consists of beautifully designed components that mirror real-world objects.
The foundational belief being, by imitating the physical world, we reduce users' cognitive loads. The design language has been adopted by JavaScript communities across multiple frameworks, including; React, Svelte, Angular, and Vue. With the Budibase builder, users can use material design components to build their web apps. Tailwind is a CSS framework that takes a utility first approach for building custom designs.
Tailwind is a newcomer to the CSS framework arena and is proving a hit with developers. Instead of relying on opinionated components, it gives the user the freedom to customize their components with utility classes within HTML. Tailwind is planning to release Tailwind UI , which will contain templates and components to help developers gain a headstart in building out their UI. Do not skip testing! Testing is imperative and must be completed as you build your web application.
In the long run, testing will save you money, improve security, enhance product quality, and boost customer satisfaction. To help you test your web application, here are three tools which I cannot live without:. Selenium is an open-source automated testing suite for web applications across different browsers and platforms. I like Selenium because it supports all major languages and is tried and tested.
The interface is pretty simple to understand, and the reports are excellent. Lighthouse is an open-source , automated tool for improving the quality of web pages. You can run it against any web page, public, or requiring authentication. The interface is excellent, and it has audits for performance, accessibility, progressive web apps, SEO, and more.
The audits are very easy to understand and provide actionable feedback, along with a scoring mechanism to track progress. Lighthouse has grown in popularity over the last 24 months, and it is the go-to testing tool for page speed. DevTools are great for testing designs, diagnosing problems, and editing pages on the fly. DevTool is an essential free tool every web developer should know and use. Hosting is a necessary component of web development.
The adoption of cloud computing has taken the internet world by storm, as applications are move from on-premise storage to cloud storage. This shift has brought with it many advantages, including better scaling, better user experience, and improved pricing.
There are lots of hosting platforms out there, including GCP, Azure, Zeit, which I would advise you to research before making any hosting platform decisions. It is enormous and delivers users scalable and cost-effective computing resources on which to host your applications.
