Hello dear HNers. Each year for the last few years I have asked companies of one, meaning companies that consists of only one person of what tech stacks you use. Include as much and as little information as possible but the more the merrier! Feel free to link to your site or project for show case if you want.

What is your tech stack?

Why did you choose it?

Do you think your choices had any impact on your success or failure?

ruby on rails, sqlite, sidekiq + redis, and caddy, all hosted on a single hetzner dedicated server. no front-end frameworks, only tailwind.

tarsnap and restic for offsite backups.

I push code to github; then capistrano (think bash script with some bells and whistles) deploys that code to the server and restarts systemd processes.

I've been running this saas business for 3+ years and wouldn't change a thing. I'm also working on a new business with the exact same stack.
