History

Force was open-sourced in 2014 and was an early successful implementation of an isomorphic JavaScript application, rendering both the server and client side. It has been developed in the open since August 2016.

Since then it has evolved into what we regard as a fairly bullet-proof stack: React, Relay (a GraphQL client library), TypeScript, and our design system Palette.
