Cool, but I could do it in the same time with Rails

If I did it with a Rails template such as JumpStart I’d also have a tonne of extra features such as user authentication, payments, styling etc. out of the bag

Could you tell us more about jumpstart?

Is it well supported,

who provides it,

are there similar templates that don’t work as well and why?

https://jumpstartrails.com/

There are a few other Rails template frameworks but I think this is the most popular. It basically has a lot of the boilerplate stuff that you need to do for setting up a SaaS product. Of course because it’s rails a lot of the stuff is supplied in gems

Over $700/year if you want to develop more than one website seems a bit too much to me.

Works out pretty well if you think of it in dev time spent imo
