Look, I'm not gonna lie - I'm way too dumb to build a proper SaaS with databases, authentication, user management, and all that jazz. I can barely get my life in order, let alone handle user sessions and data persistence across servers. That's way too much responsibility.
Sometimes the simple solution is the best solution. Plus, you get all the benefits without having to pay.
Win-win! 🎉
Made with ❤️
