Scalable Python SaaS backend boilerplate?
I have seen several of these boilerplate SaaS apps for Nodejs and php that provide a ready made framework with auth, payments, user management, etc... but I don’t know any for python. Is that something python devs or makers working with python devs would find useful and pay for?
Something that lets you skip the basics of app dev, let’s you get right to writing your app’s unique code, complete with user/payments/subscription management, auth, security, and docs on deploying and scaling on AWS or GCP using docker to scale automatically as needed.
I’m a software architect and have built several products that scaled to millions of requests per day, so I’ve done that part several times. Just trying to gauge interest/usefulness.
Hi @jd4no! I work in the user auth/payments space so I'd love to hear more about this — would you be open to a call to share what might be ideal here and some of the problems you've encountered along the way, in your experience? :)
Email + Twitter DM's both open — whatever you prefer!
I personally don't normally go for boilerplates as I generally find them too opinionated. Saying that cookie cutter is great if you want some boilerplate / scaffolding - For example cookiecutter-django gets you setup quite quickly with Django.
If I want to check some scaffolding I normally just google
cookie cutter x(e.g. cookie cutter flask) if I need anything.It doesn't often deal with deploying and scaling but to be honest again generally find things to opinionated and I do it in different ways for different needs (scalability, price, SLA's etc).
