Choosing the Right Tech Stack for Custom Software

How to choose a tech stack for your custom software project based on your team, budget, timeline and growth plans.

Choosing the Right Tech Stack for Custom Software

The right tech stack depends less on what’s trendy and more on your goals, your team and how you expect the product to grow.

Questions to ask first

  • Who will maintain the software after launch?
  • How many users do you expect in year one, and in year three?
  • Do you need mobile apps, a web app, or both?
  • Which systems does it need to connect to?

Our usual starting point

For most business applications we use a modern JavaScript or Python backend, a React-based frontend and a managed cloud database. It’s fast to build, easy to hire for and scales well.
