CSS: tailwindcss (https://tailwindcss.com); currently 3.4.17,

slowly replacing Bootstrap (https://getbootstrap.com; currently 4.6)

JS: AlpineJS (https://alpinejs.dev/); currently 3.14.8,

slowly replacing JQuery (https://jquery.com; currently 3.7.1)

JS: Vue.js (https://vuejs.org; currently 3.5.13)

•The application is being realized with the symfony-framework (https://symfony.com/;

•currently 7.3.2) using PHP (currently 8.3.19) and for templating Twig (https://twig.symfony.com)

•The database is MySQL (currently 5.7.37)

•Audit trail with Symfony on-board tools tailor-made to our own solution

•Safe the audit trail: to prevent that the massive audit trail slows down our application we have externalized the audit function into a separate mySQL database. This database also goes onto the monthly backup sitting on our NAS.

•Hosting is with Cyon Basle

•We started with the main language deployed being “Swiss German”. We are now using English, provisioning “Swiss German” and “French”. Expressions to be translated are grouped by entity / activity in one .xlf file and then translated.

•Merging PDF's of different versions does not work with PHP, unless you buy/license a library with this feature or use a paid API. So, to merge PDF's we build our own API service in Rust. The service runs under hech.e9li.io on another Cyon server in Basel.

•We use phpStorm (JetBrains) as development tool

•The project is published/maintained in a private github-repository

•Walter has a “thing” with documentation, we are quite strong here:

https://www.hech.ch/help/index.html plus a lot of structured information in his working environment

•Data security: NAS in a private cloud environment
