Tech Radar
Technologies currently under evaluation before becoming team defaults.
Use this page to track technologies we are testing now, why we are testing them, and what must be true before adoption.
Overall goals for 2026
We are currently optimizing for faster development and deployment cycles so projects can be delivered faster in the era of agentic AI.
This means prioritizing technologies that:
- reduce setup and iteration time
- simplify release and deployment workflows
- keep quality gates strong while increasing delivery throughput

Current radar
| Technology | Area | Why evaluating | Current status | Decision trigger |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TanStack Start | Frontend/fullstack framework | SPA centric with easy upgrade to SSR per page | Trial | Two production pilots with stable SPA and SSR and routing workflows |
| Bun | Runtime and package management for regular projects | Improve install speed and local dev performance | Assess | CI stability parity with current Node + pnpm baseline |
| TanStack DB | Client data layer | Evaluate local-first/reactive data patterns for complex frontend state | Trial | Clear value over current query + state approach in real feature modules |
Working agreement
- New tools must be tested in a bounded scope first.
- Every trial needs an owner and evaluation date.
- Adoption decisions are recorded in ADRs.
