What gets built

The plumbing every real product needs.

Pick the pieces you need. Most MVPs use the first four.

Auth & accounts

Sign-up, login, password reset, social login, roles and permissions. Secure sessions, not a homemade cookie.

Payments & billing

Stripe checkout, subscriptions, one-off charges, invoices, webhooks. Money in, receipts out, nothing dropped.

Dashboards & admin

The screen you actually run the business from — metrics, tables, filters, exports, an admin panel to manage it all.

APIs & integrations

REST/GraphQL endpoints, third-party APIs, webhooks in and out. The app talks to the tools you already use.

Realtime & notifications

Live updates, email/SMS/push, in-app alerts. Users know the moment something happens.

Storage & files

Uploads, media handling, documents, S3-style object storage. Big files without breaking the database.

The stack

Boring where it counts, modern where it helps.

Proven tools, not whatever's trending this week. Chosen so the app is cheap to run and easy to hand over.

Next.js

React framework — fast, SEO-friendly, one codebase front-to-back.

Supabase

Postgres + auth + storage. Open-source, no vendor lock-in.

Stripe

Payments done right — the industry standard for a reason.

Your VPS / Vercel

Deployed where you want it. Own the box or use the cloud.

Sample builds

The kind of thing that gets shipped.

Representative examples — the shape of real MVP work.

How MVPs ship here

Fast, but not reckless.

Define the core

One sentence: what must the MVP prove? Everything not serving that gets cut, or parked for v2.

Design the flows

The 3–4 screens that matter, clickable, before a line of production code. You react early, not late.

Build the slice

Auth → data → the one feature that matters → payments. Working software each week, not a big-bang reveal.

Ship & learn

Live on your domain with real users. Then iterate on what they actually do, not what we guessed.
