The stack we build on. Boring. Fast. Yours.
Every Minuswires project ships on the same set of battle-tested tools — chosen for performance, hireability, and the freedom to walk away with your code if you ever want to.
Three principles, no exceptions.
Boring stack, sharp execution
No experimental frameworks. No proprietary lock-in. Tools battle-tested by Vercel, Stripe, Notion, and the New York Times. If it goes sideways, the docs and the talent pool exist.
You own the code
Every project ships to your GitHub. We hand over keys on day one. If you want to bring development in-house in a year, the runway is there.
Brand Base is included, not sold
Our growth platform is wired into every project we ship. Not an upsell, not a separate license. The same tools we use to grow our own business, running on yours.
What we use, layer by layer.
Every tool below earned its spot by shipping in production for real businesses — not because it was new on Hacker News.
Frontend
What your customers see
Next.js 15
Server-rendered React with the App Router — fast first paints, perfect SEO, no client-side waterfalls.
React 19
The library every other component framework copies. Stable, fast, and hireable if you ever need to bring it in-house.
TypeScript
Catches entire categories of bugs at build time, before your customers ever see them.
Tailwind CSS
Atomic styling that ships less CSS to the browser. Sites stay fast as they grow.
Framer Motion
The animation library that makes interactions feel intentional, not gimmicky.
Data & Backend
Where your business lives
Supabase (Postgres 17)
Real Postgres — not a NoSQL toy. Row-level security, real-time, and you can hire any DBA in the world.
Edge Functions
Serverless Node/TypeScript at the network edge. Sub-100ms response times globally.
Sentry
Errors get caught, attributed, and traced before customers tell you something is broken.
Hosting & Delivery
How it gets to the world
Vercel
Built by the team that builds Next.js. Atomic deploys, instant rollback, zero ops overhead.
Global CDN
Static assets served from the closest edge to every visitor. Sparta to Sydney in under 200ms.
Cloudinary / Supabase Storage
Images served as AVIF/WebP, sized for the device, cached for a year. CLS goes to zero.
Brand Base
Our proprietary growth layer
AI search optimization
Schema, llms.txt, and entity graphs wired in from day one — for Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Bing Copilot.
Lead scoring + pipeline
Every form submission scored, attributed, and routed. No leads lost in inbox queues.
Live growth dashboard
Traffic, conversions, and revenue in one view. No GA4 spelunking.
Editorial calendar + content engine
AI-assisted draft generation tied to your real keyword opportunities.
The shortlist of things you won't find on a Minuswires site.
WordPress + 47 plugins
Plugin sprawl is the #1 source of slow sites and security incidents. Custom code beats it on every metric.
Squarespace / Wix / Webflow
Fine for hobby sites. Not fine when your forms break and you have no way to fix them at 11pm on a Sunday.
jQuery and legacy build tools
It's 2026. Modern frameworks render faster, ship less code, and are easier to maintain.
Framework-of-the-month
We use stable, widely-adopted tools. If a framework has fewer than 100k weekly downloads, it's not going on your project.
