There has been a ‘get rich quick’ thing going on with devs selling ‘saas starters’, so, while a few years ago that was interesting niche, now there are 1000s of them, open source and closed source. Most of them include all components to build both the saas functionality (which can be the internal tool) and the outside (landing, sales pages, docs and subscription payments). They all include auth and most are nextjs. With those tools you can whip up stuff in no time.

Yeah I made a project with Supabase for the backend, Vercel for the frontend (literally all you do it git push and it handles deployments), and then Nuxt.js for the frontend.

It was pretty simple for someone who had no frontend experience. I will say that I'm sure if the app took off it would have scaling issues, but for the few users it had this worked fine.

I don’t think the ‘sure’ is sure. Take off Twitter/fb style yes, but take off most businessee do, you would be fine. Even with that.
