    Serverless GraphQL Examples for AWS AppSync and Apollo

  • AWS Lambda is my go-to choice when it comes to backend hosting. You can configure your domain or subdomain in Route 53 and API Gateway to interface with your functions via REST API. I highly recommend using Serverless for deploying your code. It abstracts all the complexity and you can deploy all the complex cloud configurations using a simple YAML file.

  • MongoDB

    The MongoDB Database

  • MongoDB - If your SAAS requires Advance No SQL queries, Aggregations and etc. MongoDB Atlas has a serverless option and you can get free credits by applying to the MongoDB Startup program

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • vercel

    Develop. Preview. Ship.

  • Netilify and Vercelare best suited for web hosting. I personally use Vercel but Netilify is equally good. They both have CDN built in, generous limits(paid plans starting at 20$), image optimization, Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment.

  • Sentry

    Developer-first error tracking and performance monitoring

  • Sentry - Monitor all your errors in a single place using this. This tool converts errors into issues so you can prioritize the important issue.

  • quickstart-android

    Firebase Quickstart Samples for Android

  • For Authentication trust me to go with Firebase. It's super easy to implement and has tonnes of Authentication options including auth by phone numbers. The limits are amazing and are perfect if you are in the initial stages.

  • aws-lambda-java-libs

    Official mirror for interface definitions and helper classes for Java code running on the AWS Lambda platform.

  • AWS Lambda is my go-to choice when it comes to backend hosting. You can configure your domain or subdomain in Route 53 and API Gateway to interface with your functions via REST API.
