Our Tech Stack in 2026: Building for Scale

At Palsplan, we believe in using the best tools for the job. Here's a look at the technologies that power our social exploration platform.

Frontend: React & Next.js 14

We chose Next.js 14 with the App Router for its excellent developer experience, built-in performance optimizations, and seamless deployment to Vercel. Combined with TypeScript, we can build type-safe applications that scale.

Why This Choice?

• Server-side rendering for SEO and performance
• App Router for intuitive file-based routing
• Built-in image optimization
• Edge runtime support

Styling: Tailwind CSS & shadcn/ui

Tailwind CSS gives us the flexibility to create custom designs quickly, while shadcn/ui provides accessible, customizable components out of the box. The combination lets us move fast without sacrificing quality.

Backend: Supabase

Supabase has been a game-changer for us. It provides:

• PostgreSQL database with row-level security
• Real-time subscriptions
• File storage
• Edge functions
• Authentication (when we need it)

Mobile: React Native

Our mobile apps are built with React Native, allowing us to share code between iOS and Android while still providing native experiences.

Infrastructure: Vercel & Cloudflare

We deploy to Vercel for automatic scaling and edge caching. Cloudflare provides additional security and performance benefits.

What's Next?

We're always evaluating new technologies. Currently, we're excited about AI-powered recommendations and advanced location features that will make exploration even more personalized.
