Build plan
One calm product path.
The guide stays narrow on purpose: choose a simple idea, build the foundation, add EUR payments, and ship it to your first users.
01
Architecture
Set the shape of the app before adding code.
02
Database
Model the product around real user behavior.
03
Authentication
Add accounts without turning the app into a maze.
04
Billing
Wire Stripe subscriptions in EUR, plus Stripe Tax for basic MwSt/VAT handling.
05
Launch
Deploy, tighten metadata, and prepare your first users.
What you build
A complete product, reduced to its essentials.
Plan
Shape a small SaaS idea and map the core user flow.
Build
Implement the database, auth, interface, and EUR payments.
Launch
Deploy, polish metadata, and prepare your first users.
Building in Berlin
What's different when you build here.
Payments
Stripe is the default rail here too — the course wires up Stripe Checkout, subscriptions, and webhooks in EUR from day one, with Stripe Tax covering the basics of German MwSt.
Founder communities
Factory Berlin, Silicon Allee, and the local Indie Hackers meetups are common places founders share progress, and alumni networks from companies like N26 and Rocket Internet run their own build-in-public circles.
Where builders are
Kreuzberg, Mitte, and Prenzlauer Berg have a strong concentration of fintech, dev-tool, and B2B SaaS teams, but the blueprint works the same fully remote.
Questions
Clear answers before you start.
Yes. The billing module is built around Stripe Checkout and subscriptions in EUR, and covers the basics of Stripe Tax for German MwSt.
No. If you know basic React and can follow a guided project, the blueprint is designed to help you move one small step at a time.
A practical build path covering setup, database structure, auth, EUR payments, deployment, and the launch details that usually get skipped.
