Ask HN: How do you quickly prototype a webapp in 2020?

17 pointsby break_the_bankabout 5 years ago
What's your development stack? What tools or no code tools do you use to get off the ground faster? How long do you typically take to process prototype ideas?

I&#x27;m using a VueJS&#x2F;VuetifyJS frontend and Firebase backend.<p>Bento is a great Vue and Firebase PWA template to quickly get you started. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kefranabg&#x2F;bento-starter" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kefranabg&#x2F;bento-starter</a>

<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bubble.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bubble.io&#x2F;</a> - for non-developers, good for prototyping and simple apps but not scalable<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;remaketheweb.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;remaketheweb.com&#x2F;</a> - seems cool, full-stack framework, not totally flexible but might be interesting for simpler apps<p>We are working on an open-source project for developers that would be both easy to use but also flexible and scalable. You can see it here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wasp-lang.dev&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wasp-lang.dev&#x2F;</a> - it&#x27;s still a work in progress, but would be cool to get your feedback!

I use Postgres + PostgREST.<p>PostgREST is an amazing tool for cutting down all the middleware you’d normally need to build.<p>A bit of a plug but I’m also building supabase.io which gives real-time functionality to Postgres (like Firebase)

about 10 years too late, but I&#x27;m just discovering heroku + django magic.<p>haven&#x27;t tried the cookiecutter for django yet, but I understand it streamlines it further.<p>currently using:<p>- django<p>- django-allauth (enable only g suite)<p>- django-rest-auth<p>- djangorestframework<p>- django-heroku<p>- local postgres for development<p>- heroku postgres for production<p>this stands up an admin-ready site with authentication and a Rest API.

I&#x27;ve been experimenting and generally happy with <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stacker.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stacker.app</a>, creates a web portal from an airtable with authentication

I use Webflow. No code. Some HTML&#x2F;CSS knowledge will be helpful. You can be online in a day or two if you have 3 to 7 pages.

Auth0, did it yesterday, authentication ready to test in 15 minutes.<p>For backend was very quick and refreshing to use kotlin and javalin.
