Tech Tester Arena

Welcome to Tech Tester Arena! This project is designed to explore and compare various web technologies.

Tested Technologies

Tested technologies are split into POC (proof of concept) and Con (Consideration)

• Back:
  • Con - Express
  • Con - Flask
  • Con - PHP
  • POC - FastAPI
• DB:
  • Con - MangoDB
  • Con - PostgresSQL
  • Con - SQLite
  • POC - SQLAlchemy
• Front:
  • Con - Angular
  • Con - HTML / CSS / JavaScript
  • Con - Vue.js
  • POC - React
• Mobile:
  • Con - Flutter
  • Con - Kotlin
  • Con - React Native
  • POC - React + Capacitor

Purpose

Evaluate, prototype, and benchmark multiple frameworks and languages to identify the most suitable technology for the EPITECH arena project. This platform supports learning, experimentation, and informed decision-making.

POC / Con testing policy

• Con:
  • Basic oficial tutorial
    • front: routing, components, data store (eg. jwt token)
    • back: routing, json, cron, oauth2
  • Multiple questions to answer:
    • Why we considered it? (short description about it)
    • Who in the group has prior knowledge about this tech?
    • What this tech could allows us to improve our area workflow?
    • What is General feeling? (intallation, tools, libs & support)
• POC:
  • min req for fonctional area project

Our choices

After testing multiple technologies we decided to settle on these:

• fastAPI for the backend.
• SQLAlchemy for the orm.
• React for the frontend of the web application.
• React with capacitor for the frontend of the mobile application.
