    What software are you using to build your platform (SAAS)

    So I'm just curious what platform are you using and are there any other alternatives to this? Like vercel or netlify, and what is better in terms of launching your startup SAAS?

    We're using a fairly standard stack for our SaaS: React/TypeScript for the frontend, Node.js/Express for the backend API layer, and AWS for hosting/infrastructure (EC2, RDS, S3, etc). It's not the most cutting-edge but it gets the job done! I'd be curious to hear about more modern approaches others are using, especially around serverless.

    As a Python developer, I used Fly.io for side projects. It's great because I can deploy extremely easily and quickly. However, there are limitations for using it in production environments, and it feels a bit slow, so I use AWS for production.

    I'm a college student right now so maybe what I'm doing isn't right- take my advice with a grain of salt 😆. But at tutorly, we're using Vercel to host, React and Typescript for the actual code, and GCP for all the infra and storage. Our stack is pretty simple but has been extremely useful.
