Technologies · 2026

We create software using technologies you can trust.

A curated stack — not a trophy wall. 48 platforms, languages, and AI tools we use on real client work, grouped by what they do. Every entry links to a short, honest note on where it fits and when we reach for it.

§ What's on this page

A pragmatic stack, documented in plain language.

At NerdHeadz we build AI-first custom software: web apps, mobile apps, internal tools, RAG systems, and AI agents. This page is the full, honest inventory of the tools, languages, platforms, and models we reach for on real client work — grouped by what they do, not by vendor.

We believe stack lists are usually useless marketing theatre. Ours is different: every entry below has a short note on where it fits and when we pick it. The goal is to make it easy for you — or a crawler — to figure out whether we have the expertise for your project in under 60 seconds.

Group by48 technologies
01

AI & Intelligence

Foundation models and agentic coding tools that power our AI-first products.

12 tools
02

Automation & Workflows

Orchestration platforms for custom workflows, RAG pipelines, and operational glue.

5 tools
03

Frontend Frameworks

The UI layer — React, Next.js, mobile frameworks, and styling we ship production apps with.

5 tools
04

Backends & APIs

API platforms and server runtimes — managed, custom, Python, Node, all of it.

4 tools
05

Databases & Search

Relational, document, vector, and operational stores. Every product needs one.

6 tools
06

No-Code & CMS

Visual builders we pick when speed-to-market beats bespoke engineering.

5 tools
07

Languages

The foundational languages we hand-write when no-code stops being enough.

5 tools
08

Deploy & Ops

Where things actually run — hosts, edge, containers, and the testing harness around them.

5 tools
  • Vercel

    Deployment
    since2022

    Our default host for Next.js, Remix, and SvelteKit. Edge functions, preview URLs per PR, instant rollbacks, real observability.

    Frontend cloud platform for deploying Next.js and modern web apps.
  • R

    Railway

    App hosting
    since2023

    One-click Postgres, Redis, and background workers. We use it for FastAPI services, n8n instances, and anything that isn't on Vercel.

    Simple infrastructure platform for deploying apps, databases, and workers.
  • Cloudflare

    Edge platform
    since2022

    CDN, Workers, R2, D1, and Durable Objects. Our pick when the architecture needs to be globally close to users.

    Edge network for CDN, serverless workers, storage, and security.
  • Playwright

    E2E testing
    since2023

    Cross-browser end-to-end tests that don't flake. We wire Playwright into CI on every custom-coded product we ship.

    End-to-end browser testing framework for modern web apps.
  • Docker

    Containers
    since2022

    Every service ships in a container. Local dev, CI, and production on the same image — no "works on my machine" surprises.

    Containerization for portable, reproducible application deployment.
09

Design & Handoff

Tools bridging product design to shippable code.

1 tools
  • Fi

    Figma

    Design tool
    since2022

    Every pixel starts in Figma — component libraries, design tokens, and Dev-Mode handoff straight into Cursor and Claude Code.

    Collaborative design tool for UI/UX, component libraries, and handoff.
How we pick a stack

Four principles, no exceptions.

01

Speed to revenue first

Pick the fastest tool that holds up for the next 12 months of growth. Re-platform later if needed — don't over-engineer upfront.

02

Boring where it matters

Postgres, Python, TypeScript — battle-tested runtimes for anything load-bearing. Novelty belongs in the UX, not the database.

03

Own the edit layer

Whatever we ship, your non-technical team can keep it running. CMS, no-code, or a clean admin panel — always.

04

AI as a teammate

Claude Code and Cursor are on every project. They scaffold, test, and review — our humans decide what ships.

FAQ

Questions we actually hear.

We pair AI foundation models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Claude Code, Claude Design, Cursor) with modern frameworks (Next.js, React, React Native, Flutter, FastAPI, Node.js), scalable backends (Supabase, Xano, Postgres, MongoDB, Qdrant, ElasticSearch), automation (n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Apps Script), no-code (Bubble, Webflow, FlutterFlow, Natively, Payload), and hand-written code in TypeScript, Python, Dart, and PHP. We deploy on Vercel, Railway, and Cloudflare, with Playwright tests and Docker in CI.
