Along these lines, can anyone recommend a framework for developing a SaaS prototype? Ideally, it would include things like payment processing, user auth, admin dashboards, etc. I've been looking at Laravel Spark, but I'm wondering if people have other suggestions.

Huh. I've actually been working on one of these for the past month or so. It's largely borne out of the fact that I couldn't find any that worked quite the way I wanted (Node, Vue, Tailwind, HMVC architecture), but also that, yeah, there definitely seems like an opportunity here for a pretty wide variety of SaaS template apps.

Any chance you'd be willing to have a short email conversation about what you're looking for? If so, my email's in my bio here.

It's hard to go wrong with Spark. Jumpstart Rails is another option from a source I'd trust.

I would recommend Laravel Spark only if the options that it provides are exactly as you need them. In my use-case, I started with Spark, then effectively removed it as my revenue model changed. This was about 3 years ago and I know that there have been meaningful updates since then.

Alternatively, on the admin side, Laravel Nova is an extremely useful admin framework. Some of the out-of-the-box API options for Laravel are also superior to the Spark offerings. YMMV!
