⚡️ HomeNog: Technical Stack "Brag Sheet"

"It's not just a home inventory app. It's a bleeding-edge, full-stack neural network for your house."

HomeNog is built on a stack that developers dream about. We didn't just pick "stable"—we picked FAST, MODERN, and INTELLIGENT.

🚀 The Core Engine (Frontend & Compute)

• Next.js 16 (Canary/RC): We are living in the future. We're running on the absolute latest Next.js version, leveraging Server Actions, React Server Components (RSC), and the cutting-edge App Router.
• React 19: Utilizing the newest concurrent features and form actions before they are even mainstream.
• OpenNext + Cloudflare Workers: We don't just run on servers; we run on the Edge. Our app is compiled via opennextjs-cloudflare to run globally distributed on Cloudflare's massive network for sub-millisecond start times.
• TypeScript: 100% type safety. If it compiles, it ships.

💅 Styling & UX (Glassmorphism & Speed)

• Tailwind CSS v4: We skipped v3 and went straight to the next generation. Zero-runtime compilation, lightning-fast builds, and a CSS-first configuration.
• Lucide React: crisply rendered, lightweight SVG icons that look perfect on any DPI.
• Shadcn UI: Using a headless, accessible component primitive system (Radix) styled with Tailwind for that premium, "glass" aesthetic.

🧠 Artificial Intelligence (The "Brain")

• OpenAI GPT-4 Vision: HomeNog sees your items. We pipe image streams directly to LLMs to extract brand, model, and category data automatically.
• Plus-Exclusive Intelligence: While free users get standard models, HomeNog Plus members unlock the absolute latest, most powerful neural networks (e.g., GPT-5.2) for superior reasoning and image analysis.
• Google Custom Search API: Automated research agent that hunts down official product images and PDF manuals while you sleep.
• Client-Side Intelligence: To avoid server timeouts, we built a distributed processing engine where the client orchestrates the AI agents, allowing for massive batch operations (150+ items) with real-time visual feedback.

🗄️ Data & Backend (Serverless PostgreSQL)

• Supabase (PostgreSQL): The world's most advanced open-source database.
• Row Level Security (RLS): Bank-grade security baked directly into the database engine. Every query is safe by default.
• Supabase Auth: Secure, passwordless, and OAuth authentication flows.
• Supabase Storage: S3-compatible object storage for millions of item photos and PDF manuals.

🛡️ SDLC & Engineering Excellence

We don't just write code; we engineer systems.

• Unit Testing (Vitest): Blazingly fast unit tests running on Vite, ensuring individual utilities and hooks perform flawlessly.
• End-to-End Testing (Playwright): We sleep soundly because robots don't. Our Playwright suite simulates real user journeys—signing up, importing CSVs, upgrading subscriptions—ensuring that critical flows never regress.
• Smoke Testing: Automated "health checks" that verify the core vitals of the application immediately after every deployment.
• CI/CD: Automated pipelines that enforce linting, type-checking, and testing before a single line of code touches production. We deploy with confidence, not hope.

💳 Monetization

• Stripe Integration: Full subscription handling, webhooks, and secure checkout sessions deeply integrated into the Next.js server actions.

🏆 The "Antigravity" Achievement

"Google Antigravity bringing one Product Owner's vision to reality part-time over holiday break."

What you see here wasn't built by a massive agency over 6 months. It was engineered by Google Antigravity—an advanced agentic AI workflow—working in tight synchronization with a visionary Product Owner. In just a few days over the holiday break, we went from concept to a production-grade, edge-deployed, AI-powered application.

Summary: HomeNog isn't a CRUD app. It's an Edge-Deployed, AI-Augmented, Real-Time React 19 Powerhouse.
