Using the right technology reduces the headaches of switching and updating in the event that something becomes unsupported, insecure, etc. Picking popularly technology will allow for more support and long term sustainability.

AngularJS

The front end will be powered by AngularJS for its html templates. It is maintained by Google which should keep it from becoming obsolete

NodeJs

The server-side processing of applications will be powered by NodeJS. Javascript is a powerful language that is very fast--especially for situations requiring VM. It is also a very common language so that in the future other people can be added to the team more seamlessly.

Bootstrap

Bootstrap will be used to model the site. It is a popular tool that creates a clean and simple result. This was developed by a team at Twitter so it should continue to receive support.
