Traefik vs Visual Studio: What are the differences?

Developers describe Traefik as "Load Balancer for Microservices". Træfɪk is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer made to deploy microservices with ease. It supports several backends (Docker, Swarm, Mesos/Marathon, Kubernetes, Consul, Etcd, Zookeeper, BoltDB, Rest API, file...) to manage its configuration automatically and dynamically. On the other hand, Visual Studio is detailed as "State-of-the-art tools and services that you can use to create great apps for devices, the cloud, and everything in between". Visual Studio is a suite of component-based software development tools and other technologies for building powerful, high-performance applications.

Traefik belongs to "Load Balancer / Reverse Proxy" category of the tech stack, while Visual Studio can be primarily classified under "Integrated Development Environment".

"Kubernetes integration" is the primary reason why developers consider Traefik over the competitors, whereas "Intellisense, ui" was stated as the key factor in picking Visual Studio.

Traefik is an open source tool with 23.2K GitHub stars and 2.4K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Traefik's open source repository on GitHub.

According to the StackShare community, Visual Studio has a broader approval, being mentioned in 678 company stacks & 1010 developers stacks; compared to Traefik, which is listed in 47 company stacks and 20 developer stacks.

Advice on Visual Studio, Traefik

William

Sep 10, 2019

Needs advice

The problem I have is whether to choose Android Studio or Visual Studio? I have to develop a simple app for a school project that can work on both iPhone and Android.

The most important factors for me are Android and iOS compatibility. Although note that i would like to become a Software Engineer when i finish my course. (I'd like to work for Apple, just saying!)

After that id like easy integration for Google Ads and such if i do develop another app that people actually use to support development. (I'd also like to stick with one easy programming language that's compatible with a wide variety of platforms since i'm a beginner and have only ever used Pascal)
