Hello World: Building Modern Islamic Apps

Welcome to the first post on the Alif Bay tech blog. We'll be sharing our journey of building high-quality Islamic software with a modern twist.

Introduction

At Alif Bay, our mission is to blend traditional values with modern engineering. This blog is where we'll share our technical challenges, architectural decisions, and the tools we use to build world-class experiences for the Muslim community.

Our Tech Stack

We believe in using the best tools for the job. Our primary stack includes:

  • Nuxt 3: For building fast, SEO-friendly web applications.
  • Tailwind CSS: For crafting beautiful, responsive user interfaces.
  • TypeScript: Ensuring our codebase is robust and maintainable.
  • PostgreSQL: For reliable and scalable data storage.

Example Code Snippet

Here is how we might define a simple Nuxt component:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: [
    '@nuxt/content',
    '@nuxtjs/tailwindcss'
  ],
  content: {
    highlight: {
      theme: 'dracula'
    }
  }
})

Why a Technical Blog?

  1. Transparency: We want to show how we build our apps.
  2. Community: Sharing knowledge helps us all grow.
  3. Quality: Writing about our work pushes us to maintain high standards.
