Ask HN: Best Tech Stack for a Chat App with AI: Python vs. Nest.js for Back End?

12 days ago

I am working on a B2C startup and need to design the backend for a website and mobile apps supporting a chat application. The platform will incorporate AI/ML models to analyze chats and user inputs, alongside a notification system for users. My initial idea is to separate the backend and AI services. Should I use Python for both the backend and AI components, or would it be better to leverage Nest.js for the backend, while using Python for AI?

Hi,

I'm an engineer with 15 year of IT experience. Instead of tech stack you should focus on speed. Use whichever tech you are faster in.

    You don't get it. The first rule of startups is to put up cool tech-logos around your website. The second rule of startups is to put your logo on the homepages of cool tech.
