Frontend: React obviously
API: Nodejs/Express or Nestjs considerations as to the fastest to bootstrap
Database: Mongo | LowDB | Airtable > Airtable: Lean, Serverless, no setups required, SQL would be an overkill + migrations :yawning_face: MongoDB, just sweet in the middle :cupid:

Integrating via the API ensures a strict contract between the decoupled apps (server, frontend) so the Server API is reponsible for data transfer objects across all instances, and remains the single source of truth in case of any breaking changes in any of the external APIs used.

Proxying also allows us to manage access of users when they manipulate the external apis. We can scale this app vertically as well as horizontally.
