Topic: Frontend Tech Stack Decision for Neighborhood Assistance Board

---

Technology	Purpose	Reason for Selection
React	UI library for building our SPA	Industry-standard, modular, and widely supported
React Router	Routing between views (Login, Feed, etc.)	Enables clean URL-based navigation without reloading pages
Redux Toolkit	Global state management (auth, feed, bookmarks)	Scalable, reduces boilerplate, and supports async logic
Tailwind CSS	Styling and layout	Utility-first CSS framework for rapid, responsive UI development
React Hook Form	Form handling (task creation, registration)	Lightweight, performant, with built-in validation support
Axios	API client	Clean syntax, interceptors support, better error handling than fetch()

---

This stack was selected based on:

• Alignment with project/course requirements (SPA + REST API integration)
• Clean division of concerns across routing, state, forms, styling, and data handling
• Proven scalability and ease of collaboration for team-based workflows
• Compatibility with our backend services (Django REST)

This combination provides a solid foundation for building a maintainable and feature-rich platform.
