Common technologies and concepts include:
Server-Side Programming Languages: Languages like Python, Ruby, Node.js, Java, and PHP are used for building the server-side of web applications.Databases: SQL (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB, Redis) databases are used to store and manage data.Server Frameworks: Frameworks like Express.js (Node.js), Ruby on Rails, Django (Python), and Laravel (PHP) provide tools and patterns for building web applications.APIs (Application Programming Interfaces): APIs allow communication between different parts of a web application or between different applications.Full-Stack Development: Full-stack developers are proficient in both front-end and back-end development. They can work on all aspects of a web application, from the user interface to the server and database.
