If you’re new you should keep it simple.

You don’t need AWS. Do you have hundreds of thousands of daily active users? Do you need auto scaling and layers of compliance? Do you need specific offerings like GPU time etc? If not the read ahead.

I’d recommend firebase for auth, hosting (your static web assets like ur web app), and storage (uploads). It’s cheap af and most importantly easy.

For your backend application you can use gcloud to deploy it to app engine. Takes one command and it’s live.

When you’re building a company you want to move fast af with reasonable tech choices.

All of these can be hotswapped easily depending on how you build your actual software. Making it “work right” (hint: it never will) is for the engineers who come on board when you’re spinning on the flywheel to spend hours bike shedding. At that time you can afford to waste time because you’ve already made it.
