Asked By TechWhizKid123 On

I'm 18 and starting college this year, and I'm eager to develop and launch a SaaS in the next few months. I spent my summer learning JavaScript, React, and Flask, and even built a small CRUD app that checks and displays crypto prices. However, I'm concerned that my skills aren't quite 'production-ready' yet. I'm currently learning FastAPI before diving into my planned SaaS project focused on algorithmic trading.

Here's what I know so far:
- Basic Git
- HTML & CSS (considering Tailwind)
- JavaScript
- React
- Flask (planning to switch to FastAPI)
- SQL (with some knowledge from CS50, aiming to learn PostgreSQL)

Should I jump into developing my SaaS after mastering FastAPI, or focus on simpler projects first to gain more experience? Are there any other crucial skills I should learn for full-stack development?

So you've built a simple web app? That's great! Now, try deploying it on a cheap VPS or cloud provider. This will give you a taste of production. Make changes locally, then redeploy—repeat this a few times to get the hang of it. You’ll see how a CI/CD pipeline can really streamline the process. Docker will be a lifesaver as you continue to develop. It'll make your deployments much easier by allowing you to package your app in a container.
