HopStack is a beautifully crafted application stack for software teams. It's great for people who already build scalable applications using AngularJS, Bootstrap, Coffeescript, and SASS and is easy enough for anyone who understands HTML5, jQuery, and CSS.
HopStack is also a uniquely crafted blend of fine javascript malts, streamlined workflows, and beautiful hops and skips to essential interface form & function.
HopStack is great for new projects like those found in hackerspaces, creative collectives, and startup / cowork spaces.

HopStack was built to consume things like Zapier, IFTTT, Firebase, and JSON... and that is all. It can, of course, consume Mongo or Couch or any data layer you wish.
Software designers, developers, hackathoners, and product owners can create and prototype applications and complex interactions with more than simple CRUD interfaces.
- Hopstack is for API developers, data researchers, tech journalists, and growth hackers.
- HopStack if for small, lean teams or large multi-disciplinary teams; and those that are in transition between the two.

- and would prefer to create a quality product in less of their overall time.
- HopStack is for the 4 Hour Work Weekers who just can't stop building incredible ideas to help them pursue their life's passions.
- Hopstack is for those digital artists that want to easily create interactions with users
We enjoy a good snifter (and the occasional pint) of fine craft beer, it's a hobby. To actually get time to do your hobby, you have to GYSHIDO. To GYSHIDO with code, you need to work smarter. So you can work smarter and drink more crafties, HopStack uses tools like...
- Solid Workflow with Yeoman, scaffolding with Yo, dependencies (plugins) management with Bower, tasks automation with Grunt, local and native cloud deployments on popular PaaS platforms like Heroku, EngineYard, AppFog, Amazon AWS, Rackspace, and more.
