We don’t just follow tech trends—we craft the tech strategy that fits you.
When building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), the decisions you make in the early stages can define your success—or slow you down. And one of the most crucial decisions? Your tech stack.
In today’s fast-paced development world, founders and teams are bombarded with choices. Should you choose a trendy frontend framework like React, or opt for something leaner like Vue? Should your backend be serverless on Firebase, or more customizable on Supabase? These questions spark endless debates and create what we call the Tech Stack Wars.
But here’s the truth: it’s not about who wins the war—it’s about what’s right for your product.
🔍 Why Tech Stack Selection Matters
Choosing the right tools isn’t just about getting the job done. It’s about:
- Scalability – Can the tech stack grow as your user base does?
- Speed – Will it help you move fast now, without slowing you later?
- Talent Availability – Can you easily find developers for your stack?
- Budget Alignment – Will licensing and usage costs blow your startup runway?
A shiny tool that looks great in a GitHub README might not be the best choice if it lacks long-term stability or community support.
⚔️ Popular MVP Tech Stack Match-Ups (and Our Thoughts)
- React vs Vue:
React is great for flexibility and large ecosystems; Vue offers a simpler learning curve and elegant syntax.
MP Nerds Recommendation: Go React for enterprise-ready products, Vue for faster iteration MVPs.
- Firebase vs Supabase:
Firebase gives you real-time features out-of-the-box. Supabase offers more SQL-friendly control.
MP Nerds Recommendation: Firebase for chat-based/social MVPs. Supabase for analytical or customizable applications.
- Node.js vs Python:
Node.js shines in real-time APIs and JS-centric teams. Python brings rich data processing and AI capabilities.
MP Nerds Recommendation: Node for agile web products; Python for data-heavy MVPs.
- PostgreSQL vs MongoDB:
PostgreSQL offers relational power. MongoDB is flexible for document-heavy needs.
MP Nerds Recommendation: PostgreSQL if you’re aiming for future analytics. MongoDB if the schema is evolving.
