Zero coding experience. Just a guy learning to build my first micro-SaaS from scratch. Building in public to stay accountable. Follow for the raw journey. 🚀
I'm a husband, a father to two boys under 5, and I work a normal 9-5 job.
I also have zero coding experience.
Yet, I’ve just officially started learning how to build my first micro-SaaS from scratch using AI tools.
Here is my 'why', my background, and my battle plan: 👇 🧵
Thanks a lot, Paul!
I would love to charge for my SaaS - But I feel that’s gonna be a while, down the road before that’s relevant. I will look into the ones your mentioned 👏
I actually forgot to mention email - I’ve already looked into that, and I’m pretty sure I will go with beehiv, when it’s time for that.
📢 Calling more experienced builders and founders!
Im already looking to pivot my Micro-SaaS tech stack. 🧵
I’ve been trying to build a micro SaaS using pure no-code. It’s amazing for a 1-day prototype, but I already feel, that I will run into problems, when I hit scale.
Here we go, I guess. Day 2.
Finally starting out, and got most things set up and created.
I knew from the start, that I would have a lot (!!) to learn, and that this would be a steep and long learning curve. I’m even more sure of that now.
I will push on, and keep learning along the way. This is a long process for me, and I’m happy that I’ve started, and enjoying it so far.
Let’s see where this takes me.🔥

@csaba_kissi Absolutely! As a new guy in this space, that would be content I would really enjoy, and would learn so much from. Go for it, I would love it 👍
Hi Alexandra - I just gave it a shot, to see what it said. I’m not the right person to talk about the functions, as I’m new in this space. But the font in “The Verdict” box is for me quite hard to read on a phone at least. Maybe it’s a me problem, but thought I would let you know.
Good job, and keep going! 👏
@dramaricic Congrats man! Great progress, keep going.
I’m myself just starting out, so it’s great to see these success stories from people who put in the work. 🔥
@JonBuildsHQ I’ve finally started working on my own project.
I’m starting from scratch, and I have no technical background, so there’s probably gonna be a lot of ups and (especially) downs. But it just feels great to have started, and excited to see where it ends.
How about yourself?
As I’m looking to do this seriously, I’m stepping up to a proper, AI-amplified stack.
The new blueprint:
💻 Editor: Cursor IDE
⚡ Frontend: Next.js + https://t.co/wDNVnS3Go1
🎨 Styling: Tailwind CSS
🗄️ Backend/DB: Supabase
🚀 Hosting: Vercel
If you are a solo founder, balancing family life with a side-hustle, or just curious to see if a dad with zero tech experience can launch a real SaaS using AI:
Hit follow, say hi in the comments, and let’s connect.
Let’s build something cool together. 🚀
I am building this in public.
Why? Because I want to stay accountable, but also because I want to connect with other builders and founders who are fighting the same battles
I’ll be sharing the raw truth here: the small wins, the (probably big) losses and everything in between
