Strategies for Choosing a Tech Stack in 2026: Between AI Trends and Boring Infra Stability
Strategi Memilih Tech Stack di 2026: Antara Tren AI dan Stabilitas "Boring Infra" Memasuki akhir 2026, kita berada di titik yang menarik dalam evolusi pengembangan perangkat lunak. Jika beberapa tahun lalu kita merasa harus mencoba setiap framework baru yang muncul di Twitter atau GitHub agar tetap relevan, tahun ini polanya mulai berubah. Ada semacam kelelahan massal terhadap hype yang…
As the software development landscape evolves, teams are shifting from trying out new frameworks to prioritizing stability, focusing on "boring infrastructure" that allows innovation to occur in product features and user experience. The combination of React 19 and Next.js 16 remains a safe choice for most web applications, while PostgreSQL has solidified its position as a versatile database solution, thanks in part to pgvector.
However, there are cases where alternative tech stacks, such as Go for high-throughput services or SvelteKit for small teams prioritizing speed and minimal bundle size, may be more suitable. The integration of AI into architectures is also becoming increasingly important, with a focus on building AI-ready systems. Ultimately, the best tech stack is one that enables teams to deliver value to users quickly and with minimal stress.
