Awesome work, I ended up building a custom invoice builder as part of a larger custom SaaS for my wife & my local business, so this product resonates big time.

My random internet person's opinion: Instead of a 14-day trial, I think freemium is better where you can use it for up to X # of clients and if you want to go beyond some usage then you have to pay (e.g. Vercel, GitHub, etc. model).

For $9/mo, I would also expect React/Angular/Vue libraries to implement this into a larger project or other back office workflow - just my 2 cents!

Thanks for sharing, I love stuff like this.

For $9/mo you are really expecting a library to integrate this in your other applications? I think you forgot a few numbers on that value.
Nope didn't say to "integrate it for me".

Simply said I expect there to be an npm to use in case I don't want to use the hosted UI. Very common, almost everyone does it. I would even expect that of free-to-use SaaS.

Example: https://www.npmjs.com/package/easyinvoice

Not to mention it's pretty low effort to build to a dist and npm publish - it would be very worth it to get more people using the product. That's why it's so common.
