Modern MERN vs. Nextless.js vs. Unlambda vs. Vue.js Comparison Chart

Modern MERN is a comprehensive Node.js SaaS boilerplate designed to accelerate the development of SaaS products by providing a robust foundation built with the MERN stack, MongoDB, Express.js, React, and Node.js. It incorporates modern technologies such as Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Prisma, and Serverless architecture on AWS, ensuring scalability and maintainability. The boilerplate includes essential features like authentication (supporting email/password, Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon logins), multi-tenancy with team management, subscription payments via Stripe integration, and an admin dashboard for efficient user and team oversight. Developers benefit from a clean code architecture adhering to solid principles, pre-built responsive UI components, multi-theme support, and a mobile-first design approach. The platform emphasizes high-quality code standards, incorporating tools like ESLint, Prettier, Husky, and TypeScript, alongside comprehensive testing.

Unlambda is a programming language. Nothing remarkable there. The originality of Unlambda is that it stands as the unexpected intersection of two marginal families of languages. Functional programming languages, of which the canonical representative is Scheme (a Lisp dialect). This means that the basic object manipulated by the language (and indeed the only one as far as Unlambda is concerned) is the function. Rather, Unlambda uses a functional approach to programming: the only form of objects it manipulates are functions. Each function takes a function as an argument and returns a function. Apart from a binary “apply” operation, Unlambda provides several built-in functions (the most important ones being the K and S combinators). User-defined functions can be created, but not saved or named, because Unlambda does not have any variables.
