how do you keep up with all the new frameworks in language X?

Frameworks come and go with all languages and as a developer I am having quite a time trying to:

1. pick a good solid framework in a given language
2. concerned the framework i learn will die and i will have to learn a new framework
3. hate 1,2 because frameworks provide so much out of the box and i hate re-inventing the wheel

Anyone have advice on how to manage the many frameworks for any开发者_如何学Go given language from a developer point of view?

Pick one that's good, has solid backing (either open-source or monetarily), and learn it well. If it does the job you need it to do, then it doesn't matter if it "dies", it'll still be doing the job for you.

Actually, the two key criteria would be:

a) how good is the documentation? Are there many howto guides and worked examples? Any published books on the framework in question?

b) I would look at the community: join the official mailing lists if there are any; register on forums if there are any. A healthy framework will have plenty of activity in these community resources.

I have worked with several frameworks for web development and now do mobile development. Im curious as to what languages you're looking at?
