Original: Don't pay for servers for your MVP: 3 free platforms (Frontend, Backend, and DB)

Short summary

Deploy a full-stack MVP free using three platforms: serverless backend with authentication, PostgreSQL database (512 MB storage), and GitHub-integrated frontend CDN. Free tiers provide 2 GB file storage and 1 TB bandwidth—sufficient for validating ideas. Includes practical workarounds for serverless cold starts and framework compatibility.

  • •Three platforms cover full stack: backend (serverless + auth), database (PostgreSQL with embeddings/PostGIS), and frontend (global CDN + WAF)
  • •Free tiers provide 512 MB DB storage, 2 GB files, 1 TB bandwidth—enough for MVP validation
  • •Practical solutions: cron jobs prevent cold starts; Svelte adapter recommended for Cloudflare compatibility
