How I built a SaaS product in 30 days as a solo developer

Business
Discussion

I recently challenged myself to build and launch a SaaS product in just 30 days. Here's what I learned along the way and some tips for those looking to do the same. First, I had to scope the project carefully. I decided to focus on a simple but useful tool for freelance developers to track their time and generate invoices. I knew this was a problem I had personally experienced, so I had a good understanding of the requirements. I used Next.js for the frontend and backend, Supabase for the database, and Stripe for payments. This stack allowed me to move quickly without having to set up a lot of infrastructure. The biggest challenge was staying focused and not getting caught up in perfectionism. I had to constantly remind myself that the goal was to ship a working product in 30 days, not to build the perfect solution.

I've been using Vue.js for the past year and I absolutely love it. The documentation is excellent and the learning curve is gentle. Definitely worth checking out!

Thanks for the recommendation! I've heard good things about Vue. Have you tried Svelte as well?

I haven't used Svelte in production yet, but I've played around with it. The compiled output is impressively small and efficient. Definitely on my list to explore more!

Svelte is amazing! We migrated a medium-sized app from React to Svelte and saw significant performance improvements. The developer experience is also top-notch.

I've been using SolidJS recently and it's been a game-changer. It has React-like syntax but with better performance characteristics. The reactivity model is similar to Vue but more granular. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something new!
