How to use StackMap

  1. Explore the fictional sample to see how applications and connections form a software ecosystem.
  2. Select Start my project, then document your applications, their connections, and the costs you know.
  3. Use the map and analyses to review your declared information. Check assumptions and missing data before making a software decision.

Understand the limits

StackMap works with the information you enter. It does not automatically discover your applications, inspect connected systems, or verify security controls. Unknown costs and incomplete information require further research; the workspace does not replace a technical or financial assessment.

Your project and privacy

Projects are saved in this browser for this website. Export a JSON backup when you need to keep a copy or move your project to another browser. Browser storage and exported files are not encrypted: keep passwords, API keys, and other secrets out of your project.

For the next step, use the Software Stack Planner to organize requirements or the Software Comparison Scorecard to evaluate a shortlist.
