About Picnic Technologies

Our Technology Stack

In all our customer-facing products, we use React. Our mobile application uses React Native, combined with our home-grown server-driven UI framework. We have ambitious plans to unify our mobile and web applications into a single platform. Quality is our top priority, so we use TypeScript across the board.
