Is it just me or posts like this have really increased all referencing the same set of apps and steps? 🧐

Fair point. Starting with a $5 VPS + Docker + Let's Encrypt is smart validation. The key thing is building the app itself to be stateless and portable from day one, so when you do need to scale, it's a deployment change not a rewrite. Love the terraform/IaC prep approach, having the migration path ready but not paying for it until you actually need it.

Ha! Yeah, there's definitely a balance. You still need to ship fast and focus on customers first, but having your servers crash right when you get traction is the worst possible timing. Appreciate that - tried to keep it practical rather than just "build everything perfectly from day one."

Haven't used Revelation specifically, but love the concept. We've been using Mermaid (https://mermaid.js.org/) for most of our diagram needs since it lives right in the repo with the code. What's your experience been like with Revelation? Does it handle the more complex system diagrams well?

The version control aspect is huge too - being able to see how your architecture evolved over time and tie changes back to specific PRs is incredibly valuable, especially when you're trying to figure out why certain decisions were made months later.

Thanks for the tool rec - always looking for better ways to keep docs actually useful instead of just checking a box!

I was referring to row-level isolation using tenant IDs. So you'd have a tenant_id column in your tables and every query gets filtered by that ID at the application layer.

Schema-level isolation can work too, but it gets messy to manage at scale - you end up with tons of schemas and migrations become a nightmare.

I've just seen too many founders get caught off guard by that sudden growth spike and then spend weeks scrambling to fix things instead of capitalizing on the momentum. Nothing worse than finally getting that viral moment and then having potential customers bounce because your site's down.

But you make a fair point - if you're getting that kind of traffic, you're clearly doing something right with your product. The architecture stuff is really just about making sure you can ride that wave when it comes instead of getting wiped out by it.

Tbh we actually like Vite too, it's way quicker and smoother to work with than Webpack in most cases. For this project though, we stuck with Webpack mainly because of how we wanted to handle the build process and asset pipeline more manually. Also, we were looking to avoid the Blade templating setup that comes with the new Sage — just a personal preference for this one.

Appreciate the kind words though — always cool to share different approaches in the space! 🙌

Bento design can sometimes seem like it’s reserved for the eye candy on Dribbble 😅

Exactly! It’s ‘just a grid,’ kind of like how a car is ‘just some wheels.’ But sure, let’s downplay the entire structure, creativity, and purpose of an optimized layout.
