Applied Stacks was a public repository, backed by a structured wiki, that documents the tools and other components people use to build websites. On the wiki, you could find what's behind specific sites, or explore sites that use a certain component.
Applied Stacks exists for two reasons:
First, it was to help you make better, more informed, choices about the languages, libraries, frameworks, toolkits and other components you use by documenting what has been successfully used by others.
Second, since one of the most convincing (and least annoying) ways of arguing the worth of a tool is to build something useful with it, this site also provided a medium for non-obnoxious advocacy.
One of the goals of the project was to help raise the visibility of packages that are less well known in the broader development community. In doing so, it is hoped that developers will be connected to the tools and components that really do best fit their specific needs and preferences.
