I decided to set my sights on a few very simple goals:
I also chose to use the tech i am most comfortable with. Luckily, my day job is pretty awesome and taught me (what i believe to be) the best rapid prototyping stack. For the nerds:
FE- Angular and Tailwind
BE- AWS server-less (dynamo, API gateway, lambda, cognito, cloudfront, s3)
Pipeline- GitHub actions & AWS CDK
This enables me to ship features with little to no downtime in a very resilient nature so new additions don't bring down the house.
