Its always best to work with the stack you are most familiar with. So for me that would 1. FeathersJS for backend [1] 2. Postgres DB 3. Angular for front end

Its always best to work with the stack you are most familiar with. So for me that would 1. FeathersJS for backend [1] 2. Postgres DB 3. Angular for front end + bootstrap 4. Postmark for transactional email (for new signup email verification, forgot password, 2-factor login) [2] 5. Digital Ocean for VPS 6. Ansible for deploying everything (server hardening, UFW for firewall) + Digital Ocean Firewall 7. Namecheap for domain 8. DNS configuration done on Digital Ocean Typescript for both Angular and FeathersJS I've done this a few times and all together it would take me about 3 - 5 hours. You can see my old ansible playbooks here https://github.com/bjacobt/digitalocean-ubuntu-ansible-setup https://github.com/bjacobt/digitalocean-ubuntu-ansible-setup An old multi-tenant feathers JS sample application is here https://github.com/bjacobt/feathers-multi-tenant-example https://github.com/bjacobt/feathers-multi-tenant-example [1] https://feathersjs.com/ https://feathersjs.com/ [2] https://postmarkapp.com/ https://postmarkapp.com/ Edit: Add server hardening + formatting + github links
