Tech Stack

This document is used to track key technologies that are used in project development.

Why Do We Need a Tech Stack Document?

A tech stack document serves several crucial purposes:

  1. Onboarding and Knowledge Transfer
    • Helps new team members quickly understand the project's technical foundation
    • Provides a clear reference for the tools and technologies in use
    • Reduces the learning curve for new developers
  2. Project Planning
    • Assists in estimating project complexity and requirements
    • Helps identify potential technical constraints early
    • Supports resource allocation and skill requirements planning
  3. Maintenance and Support
    • Makes it easier to troubleshoot issues
    • Helps in planning upgrades and migrations
    • Ensures consistent development environments
  4. Communication with Stakeholders
    • Provides transparency about technical decisions
    • Helps non-technical stakeholders understand project architecture
    • Supports technical documentation and reporting

By maintaining a clear tech stack document, teams can ensure better collaboration, consistent development practices, and more efficient project management.
