What stack is this website using?

Site Stack lists the technologies a site runs and keeps going: where it's hosted, what its DNS says, which certificate it presents and, on WordPress, which theme and plugins are installed.

Technologies

Frameworks, libraries, CMS platforms, analytics and plugins, grouped by category. The PDF report adds versions and a confidence score for each.

Hosting

The hosting provider, server IP, ASN and ISP, down to the city, region and local time.

DNS

A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and NS records, with their values and TTLs written in units you can read.

SSL

The certificate chain, who issued each certificate, when it expires and whether the chain has problems.

WordPress

The active theme with its author, version and preview, plus installed plugins with icons, ratings and premium badges.

Confidence scores. The PDF report rates each detection from 0 to 100, and a low score marks a guess.

Versions. Where a site exposes the version it's running, the export lists it next to the name.

Certificates. Issuer, validity window and chain issues, read off the certificate without a terminal.

Beyond the framework list

The details that decide whether you take the project

Knowing a site runs React is mildly interesting. Knowing it's on shared hosting, behind a certificate that expires in three weeks, running a theme the author abandoned, is the part that changes your estimate.

Where it actually lives

The hosting provider, server IP, ASN and ISP, with the location down to the city and its local time. Useful when a site feels slow from one continent and fine from another.

WordPress, in detail

The active theme with its author, version and preview, and the installed plugins with icons, ratings and a badge on the premium ones. It's the fastest way to see what a migration is really carrying.

Export a report clients can read

Turn the whole stack into a document you can send. Clients rarely want a screenshot of a browser panel, and this saves you rebuilding one in a slide deck.

Five sections. Hosting, technologies, DNS, SSL and WordPress each get a checkbox, so you send only the parts that matter.

Five formats. Markdown, PDF, JSON, CSV or plain text. PDF for the client, CSV for the spreadsheet.

One click. Hoverify builds the report from what it already read, so nothing is fetched twice.

Six record types. A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and NS, each with the value the resolver returned.

Nameservers. The NS records tell you who a domain delegates to, which is often the host you were looking for.

Readable TTLs. Record lifetimes in hours and minutes rather than raw seconds you have to divide.

Know what you're inheriting before you quote

Hoverify puts the stack checker next to the SEO audit, the CSS inspector and the screenshot tools. Read the stack, run the audit and export both as reports the client can read without you in the room.
