Hey 👋,
Let's get straight to the stack and why we picked these technologies.
Front-End:
ReactJS: Went with React for its component-based architecture—ideal for reusability and maintainability.
Tailwind CSS: A utility-first approach makes rapid prototyping a breeze.
Backend:
NodeJS: Chosen for its scalability and the enormous npm library support.
ExpressJS: Minimalistic but gives us what we need: routing, middleware, you name it.
CMS:
Contentrain: It's headless, it's flexible, we can plug it right into our frontend, no fuss.
Hosting:
Vercel: Low-latency, auto-scaling, and satistactory metrics.
External Services:
Stripe: Payment gateway integration.
SendGrid: Email.
Algolia: Search functionality.
Monitoring:
New Relic: Real-time performance monitoring to catch those bottlenecks.
Google Analytics: Still the go-to for web metrics, even for us devs.
Hope this'll help you. Happy coding! 😊
