Can anybody tell me the best tech stack to start a MicroSaaS that can scale?

I’m planning to build a MicroSaaS as a solo founder and I want to choose a tech stack that can realistically scale, not just work for an MVP.

A bit of context:

  • I’m not a developer, but I understand product flows and architecture
  • I plan to use n8n for workflows, background jobs, and automation
  • I want something:
    • Founder-friendly
    • Scalable (technically + cost-wise)
    • Not heavily locked into one platform

I’m mainly confused about:

  • Frontend (AI builders vs traditional frameworks)
  • Backend (auth, DB, APIs)
  • Hosting & deployment
  • Payments & subscriptions
