Hey guys! 👋

I’m stuck between choosing the MERN stack and the Python stack (Django/FastAPI). I’ll be graduating in 2028, so I’m looking for a stack with strong long-term opportunities.

For those already working in the industry, which one would you recommend and why? If you were starting your journey again today, which stack would you pick?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! 🚀
