# Queue North Website
|
|
|
|
## Objective
|
|
|
|
Queue North Website is the modern rebuild of the Queue North Technologies business website.
|
|
|
|
The goal is to replace the current static early-2000s-style HTML/CSS/JS site with a polished 2026 business website that clearly presents Queue North as a trustworthy communications, contact center, networking, and managed support partner.
|
|
|
|
The site should feel:
|
|
|
|
- Bright and professional
|
|
- Modern but not flashy
|
|
- Business-first, not cyber/gaming/crypto
|
|
- Easy to navigate
|
|
- Clear about Queue North's 8x8 partnership and service expertise
|
|
- Optimized for consultation and support request conversion
|
|
|
|
## Target Stack
|
|
|
|
- **Vite** — build tool, not Next.js
|
|
- **React** — SPA frontend
|
|
- **React Router** — client-side routing
|
|
- **Tailwind CSS** — utility-first styling
|
|
- **shadcn/ui** — component primitives
|
|
- **Sonner** — toast notifications
|
|
- **TanStack Query** — server state management
|
|
- **Express** — backend API
|
|
- **better-sqlite3** — SQLite database
|
|
|
|

|
## Backend Goals
|
|
|
|
Initial API endpoints:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
GET /api/health
|
|
POST /api/leads
|
|
POST /api/support
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Initial SQLite tables:
|
|
|
|
- `leads`
|
|
- `support_requests`
|
|
|
|
Contact and support forms should submit through Express, save to SQLite, and show user feedback with Sonner.
|
|
