This is neat and like the intro. If you don't mind sharing what is your front-end ui stack (for example, for building the user interface, navigation, panes, etc).

Thank you :) no worries.

We are using React.JS, Apollo and GraphQL.

For the text editor we are using Slate which is pretty good. And other than that we use emotion for styling :)

Our backend is Go, Postgres and Couchbase.

What did Couchbase offer that you found Postgres not a good fit for?

We started with Couchbase and then switched to Postgres. So it's actually the other way around. We needed ACID transactions.

Do you see yourself phasing out couch base, or do you see a reason to keep both?

We are thinking of leaving Couchbase. Most of the new code is PostGres. What was your experience with NoSQL like so far?

Thanks for sharing. So no library for styling forms? Is all that styled by hand?

The site looks great.
