      This book would sell X,000 copies pretty quickly and create substantial value, so if anyone wants to take a stab at writing it... Much of it is not rocket science, but having every SaaS entrepreneur independently reinvent not-rocket-science as table stakes is clearly suboptimal.https://twitter.com/robwalling/status/1219789056969596928 …

      Please chime in if you know of a great book or course on this topic of technical design patterns for SaaS. Even if you created it. https://twitter.com/BrettStark/status/1218368220530446336 …

      If only the software stack would stabilize long enough for a book to be published

      I think you could copy Bingo Card Creator's tech stack from, say, 2009, bump the version on everything to latest, and have a perfectly servicable SaaS company stack. Might add React or Ansible to it, but painting pixels on a web site in response to requests not a moving target.

      That extremely unsophisticated stack put together a decade ago as my first solo engineering project: Rails, Nginx, MySQL (would probably do Postgres now), Delayed::Job for queuing (would use Sidekiq now), Ubuntu, jQuery (-> React, optionally), Deprec (-> Ansible) Still works.

          Add a bit about security and devops practices - especially how/when to use third-parties to save you from toil and wheel-reinvention - and you’ve got a winner for sure.

          Go with what you already know and are proficient with not with what the latest trend in dev is.
