# Tech and Frontend research

#### We decided to split some of the responsibility between team members, since at the being, there wasn’t much other work on Frontend development.

## Tech stack research - part of it are still ongoing
- Will use React, because it's requirements(node.js) and builds are supported by every major CI/CD out there, plus it's what most of the team member are familiar with JavaScript.

- Hosting on landing provider for the moment (Netlify.com), to avoid complications for the time being and as a bonus - it's free for our needs and very fast.

- Database Management System - since all technical have familiarity with NoSQL database systems and so far it seems, that we will save most our data in JSON format, we plan to have for MongoDB (https://www.mongodb.com/)

- Data storage - ongoing research. We plan on using Curst (https://crust.network/) as a decentralised service provider, but we will need to run tests and figure out potential costs (gas fees and long term support). If not, we will stick with MongoDB, hosted on Netfily, until we find a better alternative.

## Creating a landing page
- Building a React website (www.ordum.com)
- Dealing with hosting and build
- Dealing with DNS records for domain name and email

## Researching on Subsquid - ongoing research

- Currently going trough the docs and building a small POC with indexers, that will simulate a potential workflow.

## KILT - ongoing

- Researching potential uses for authentication with KILT.
- Actually implementing it (working on a small POC, before integration to the main project).
