- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- LESS
Less CSS is a dynamic stylesheet language that extends the capabilities of CSS, allowing developers to write cleaner, more modular, and reusable stylesheets with features like variables, mixins, and nested rules.
- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Apollo
Apollo is an open-source platform for building GraphQL APIs that connects with any data source. It provides a powerful set of tools and features for developers, including client and server-side caching, real-time data synchronization, and a seamless integration with popular frontend frameworks.
- Graphql
A website that uses GraphQL as a query language to manage data fetching and state management. This includes features such as a strongly typed schema, client-side caching, and declarative data fetching to streamline data management and optimize website performance.
- Mobx
MobX is a simple and scalable state management library for JavaScript applications. It uses reactive programming techniques to automatically update the user interface in response to changes in the application state, making it easy to build complex and dynamic user interfaces with minimal code.
- 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.
- 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.
- Webpack
Webpack is a popular open-source module bundler for JavaScript applications that bundles and optimizes the code and its dependencies for production-ready deployment. It can also be used to transform other types of assets such as CSS, images, and fonts.
