Hey everyone! I'm in the process of creating a new app and I've got a solid product vision. I'm working alongside a software engineer who mainly knows AWS. I'm looking for advice on a tech stack that is scalable but won't drain our budget as we're just starting out. Any recommendations or insights? Thanks!

It's crucial to consider what your engineer is already familiar with. Starting with a stack he's comfortable with can save you a lot of learning time. Just remember, in the early days of a startup, you should avoid over-optimizing your stack too soon.
Exactly! Focus on the basics and make sure the app functions well before making it super complex.
The tech stack really hinges on what your project needs and what your engineer can manage. For instance, if they’re comfortable with AWS Lambda but you're aiming for low latency, that could be tricky. Think about what your app needs and go from there. Just don’t let up-front costs dictate your choices too heavily; consider the long term too!
Definitely! It’s best to prioritize getting something live, then optimizing later.
