- Single-page application in Vue.js. API REST on the backend. Historically implemented with Django running on AWS ECS, which is being phased out for services written in TypeScript and running on Deno. The database is AWS Aurora with Postgres compatibility
- On the back end, the REST API is historically implemented with Django. However, new developments are done with Deno — so, TypeScript

- We heavily use Honeycomb and Sentry to understand what goes on at scale
- Our coding style in TypeScript is inspired by data-oriented programming
- On the front end, our web app is a single-page application in Vue.js. It is partially in TypeScript; we migrate from JavaScript as we go
- The front-end application is continuously deployed with Cloudflare Pages, which allows for preview URLs on pull requests
- We use Claap to share videos of our work and Sentry to log errors
- We also have a mobile application, developed with Vue.js and Capacitor
- The servers run as containers on AWS. We use ECS and Fargate, and we plan to use Kubernetes (specifically EKS) in the future
- The infrastructure is entirely Terraformed, using CDKTF with TypeScript
- A small number of customers have dedicated infrastructures. We are in the process of building a solution for on-premise deployments
