  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • saasform

    Discontinued Add signup & payments to your SaaS in minutes.

  • Mostly firebase, used django in the past but leaning towards flask lately (mostly because it's fast to put it on app engine).

    We also started Saasform [1] to automate website + auth + payments. It's designed as a microservice so it can work easily with any stack. Still in beta, but if anyone takes a look I'd be more than happy to hear what you think.

  • lowdefy

    The config web stack for business apps - build internal tools, client portals, web apps, admin panels, dashboards, web sites, and CRUD apps with YAML or JSON.

  • Although it might not be perfectly positioned to build a consumer facing web-app, we wanted to make it simple to build web apps. So we built https://lowdefy.com - It makes building web apps as simple as writing a query.

    I would like to challenge anyone to show me a faster way to build out a web app of medium complexity, especially one that is more focused on working with data.

    If it is only demonstrating and testing concepts that you are after, Lowdefy can be a nice quick win.

    If you are looking for a more polished consumer experience in your MVP, I would consider Flutter, or Next.js, even Meteor.js with React.

    If you are willing to consider the No-Code route, you can also build fancy things with Bubble.io or Webflow.
