Costs of Hosting a JS App

[SimonRiley]

I m new to this Web Dev field. As far as I know, a web app based on PHP will only cost around 3-10 $ /month. But since it is the era of Node and everyone and everything is converting to that platform,
How much would it take to host a React JS base app? I would like get a answer based on the cost. ??
Thanks in advance

It depends on the cloud service provider you choose

use CDN , its almost free in any cloud provider

If this is for testing purposes use AWS Free Tier or GCP Free Credits.

1. a web app based on PHP will only cost around 3-10 $ /month - no
2. But since it is the era of Node and everyone and everything is converting to that platform - no

React is a frontend framework and it has nothing to do with PHP or NodeJS which are backend language and a runtime. React apps are not "hosted" in the traditional sense as they run on the users web browser, instead they are "delivered" (i'm excluding all SSR stuff here).

For that, typically CDNs (Content Delivery Network) are used. Obviously cost depends on your scale.

Try Alibaba Cloud or AWS, They've tailorable plans for your case.

Thanks. So overall cost isn't depend on the platform which I m using to build. thanks again

I m looking for a large scale project bud. Well not large, large, sort of like intermediate

Thanks bud.

No man, this is for a project. A system for a doctor.

Thanks, I ll consider that also.

I asked the first two questions because someone told me that. So as cost wise, there is no difference?
But not every hosting providers facilitate a node js environment app?

To give you a bigger picture,
I was asked by one of my relative Doctors, to create a web app for him, with the basic functions including,
> an appointment manage system, where patients can request an appointment from him and he can accept in based on the availability,
> also to have a record of his patients and their diagnosis,

For a project like this, I first thought doing it with Node + react + sql since I know that stuff.
But someone told me cost wise hosting will be very high?
What you thoughts on this, should I continue with above combination or shall I change it to PHP+SQL?

You really look like you're new to this...a php hosted site won't cost $3,,it differs..that would be a starting cost though.

and no there is no such thing as nodejs era or anything like that...you pick the language and tools based on your requirement..

you can host a react app for zero cost. that depends on the scale and load.

for most cases cost of cloud services doesn't depend on the tech stack but the usage.

if you are looking for a vps i can provide a free one since i have lots of idling.

1) Cost depends on use case. not so much tech stack.
2) Cost would be minimal as traffic would be small. That person has no idea what he's talking about.
