# Software Bill of Materials

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an overview of the external software components (libraries, etc.) that
|
|
|
|
|
are used in fediverse.space, or that are likely to be used.

## Backend
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

I am currently in the process of migrating from a Python and Django-based
|
|
|
|
|
backend to one written in Elixir. This list is what *will* be used in the near
|
|
|
|
|
future.
