How to Choose a Tech Stack for Your First SaaS Product

Stack decisions get treated like identity choices, but at MVP stage the right answer is almost always the boring one: whatever lets you ship and hire fastest.
What to optimize for
- Documentation and community size, not novelty
- How easy it is to find engineers who already know it
- Managed services over self-hosted infrastructure
Next.js, TypeScript, and a managed Postgres database cover the vast majority of early SaaS products. Save the exotic stack for the problem that actually needs it.
