Technology
Server, backend, and frontend — built in-house for sovereign deployments.
Server
Linux hosts with systemd, nginx TLS termination, and Rust services bound to localhost behind the edge. Optional MySQL or Postgres on your metal — no managed cloud required.
Backend
Typed Rust services: stech, Stella, Saga, Thala, and Rune. Axum APIs, SSE chat bridges, HMAC ops tokens, and LAN-only integration — code we own and audit.
Frontend
HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript — Tera templates, no React runtime, no CDN widgets, no analytics trackers. HTMX only where it saves boilerplate (contact form).
Composer 2.5
Our in-house AI development assistant — helps design, implement, and review the sovereign stack faster. Part of how stech ships; not a product you buy.
Sovereign runtime
We minimize third-party runtime dependencies. Selected crates are pinned and audited — the running system is code deployed on your infrastructure.
