⚙ Full Stack
Node.js/Sails.js backend, React frontend, Postgres for persistence, Socket.io for realtime board updates.
📈 Scaling Analysis
Postgres-backed state means data safety is solid, but the app itself is a single Node process with in-memory socket state, so horizontal scaling needs a shared Socket.io adapter (Redis) that isn't wired up by default — fine for small teams, not for large orgs.
🚀 Running on Nexlayer
Single app pod plus a postgres pod is enough; set BASE_URL to the Nexlayer-issued domain and point DATABASE_URL at postgres.pod:5432. mirror.gcr.io/library/node covers the base image with no extra services needed.
