IVVV Stack

It’s not PERN, JAM, LAMP, or MEAN.

The IVVV Stack is a simple architecture that is completed entirely on the front-end, consisting of the following components:

• Indexed DB
• Vanilla JS
• Vanilla HTML
• Vanilla CSS

Simple, right?

Sample

Here’s a memo app created using the IVVV stack.

Developing IVVV with Generative AI

It’s quite challenging for modern engineers to develop using vanilla JS, HTML, and CSS. Even for small-scale projects, it’s likely not something you’d want to do.

Use generative AI. With a decent level of language skills, you can create simple prototypes. By using randomness and asynchronous operations, you can simulate multiple users. Even with just IVVV, you can create something fairly decent.
