The technology stack is similar to the foundation of your start-up’s digital product, with tools and technologies being used for social media application & mobile app development.
Imagine building an entire multi-story building. Each floor, starting from the foundation and ending at the roof, is designed with a specific purpose, materials, and knowledge. Every part of the technology stack aims to ensure your application is high, sturdy, and reliable. Some of the components and layers are as follows:
Developing the social networking applications requires an expert team of professionals in all the required domains, as developing the applications is a complex process. It includes:
