Onshape under the hood

in General
Congratulations on such a groundbreaking product. Could someone here explain to me the technology under the hood with Onshape? Is this an end-to-end Javascript solution with Node.js on the server and some WebGL front end? Or is it a 3-part solution with a Objective-C/Swift app on the Ios side, Java or JVM based solution on the Android side, and a Javascript app for non-mobile browsers? It'd hope the former
I'm just thinking ahead for extensibility and wondering what is on the road-map as far as community generated applications might be.
Exciting stuff! I'd LOVE to be bored with the technical details if anyone is willing to explain the wiring and piping.
