- TanStack
TanStack is a collection of high-quality, framework-agnostic libraries including TanStack Query for data fetching, TanStack Router for routing, TanStack Table for tables, and more. These tools provide powerful, type-safe solutions for common web development challenges.
- Vite
Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects
- Tailwind
Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that provides pre-defined classes for building responsive and customizable user interfaces.
- UI Kits & Components
A UI kit provides developers with a set of reusable components that can be easily integrated into a website or application. These components are pre-designed with consistent styling and functionality, allowing developers to save time and effort in the design and development process. UI kits can be either custom-built or third-party, and often include components for buttons, forms, typography, icons, and more.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Framer Motion
Alpine.js is a lightweight JavaScript framework that simplifies the process of creating dynamic, reactive user interfaces on the web. It uses a declarative syntax that offers a higher level of abstraction compared to vanilla JavaScript, while being more performant and easier to use than jQuery.
- Postcss
PostCSS is a popular open-source tool that enables web developers to transform CSS styles with JavaScript plugins. It allows for efficient processing of CSS styles, from applying vendor prefixes to improving browser compatibility, ultimately resulting in cleaner, faster, and more maintainable code.
- Rollup
RollupJS is a popular and efficient JavaScript module bundler that takes the code from multiple modules and packages them into a single optimized file, minimizing the overall size of the application and improving its performance.
- Storybook
Storybook is a tool for developing and testing UI components in isolation. It provides a sandbox environment where you can experiment with different props and states to see how your component responds.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
- Vercel
Vercel offers built-in support for deploying and hosting Next.js applications, making it a popular choice among Next.js developers.
- React Hook Form
React Hook Form is a performant, flexible, and extensible form library for React with easy validation. It reduces re-renders and improves performance by using uncontrolled components and native HTML validation, making form handling simple and efficient.
- Zod
Zod is a TypeScript-first schema declaration and validation library. It allows you to define schemas that can validate data at runtime while providing excellent TypeScript inference, making it perfect for API validation, form validation, and type-safe data handling.
