Any programming language or software framework that has rapidly gained attention and buzz but is not widely used or proven effective. Sometimes inexperienced technical people will want to use fadware just because it is the latest and greatest, not because they know it will get the job done.
You have to be careful with new developers, sometimes they want to use the newest and coolest fadware instead of sticking with the tried and true.

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
