Every tool, community, book and podcast I recommend after 3 years as a solopreneur: a ~$15/month stack, free alternatives, a checklist and 7 lessons.

My self-hosted solo dev stack for ~€13/month: Next.js, PostgreSQL, Coolify, Umami and GlitchTip. Plus GlitchTip vs Sentry vs PostHog, compared honestly.

My real monthly costs as a solopreneur: 14 line items, €217/month, €2,607/year. Full cost table, what's essential and why a part-time job makes it work.
