Hey guys, so I’m kind of new to the indie hacking world and I wanted to take advantage of the current discounts and offers, I plan on building a project where the main cost will be around hosting I guess, free and premium users will upload documents all the time so that’s my my concern.

My main stack is Nextjs, Nodejs, MySQL or Postgres.

I already have a cloudways account which costs me around $11.5 a month so I’m not sure if it suits my tecj stack.

My budget is under $2000 so I don’t if that’s enough to afford the whole process, domain, hosting… Etc, no external APIs will be used so that’s about all.

Thanks in advance.

    Vercel (for Next), Supabase (for Postgres) and Render (for Next, Node, Postgres) have very good free tiers and affordable pricing for indie projects.

      Good choices. Adding to it -> Firebase file hosting, deno deploy or cloud flare workers assuming no nodejs only core utils dependency in the project
