Make a Software as a service (SAAS) product

Everyone follows the SaaS business model when it comes to business profitability. Why? Because you do not need a physical location, manage inventory, or shipping channels.  

You only need a server and your solution.

SaaS product falls under custom software development. However, changes in recent years and the availability of the latest tools created a new segment.

Depending on your needs, we can use the following technology stack;

  1. Back-end frameworks – Laravel, CodeIgnitor, Drupal, Joomla, Gin
  2. Front-end frameworks – Angular, HTMX, SvelteKit
  3. CSS frameworks – TailwindCSS, Bootstrap

You can hire our SaaS product development service. We ensure you a timely delivery.

 

Back-end frameworks

Each SaaS solution requires a reliable back-end platform. It executes all performance-related computations there. It needs to handle a lot of user requests without breaking the changes.

We analyzed and used many frameworks to find a suitable option for such products. And we came up with the following list;

  1. Laravel – It is a most mature framework built in PHP. It has all the supporting modules that you can need in your solutions.
  2. CodeIgniter – It is the lowest footprint framework built in PHP. It comes with minimal support. But, it has excellent options to extend its functionality with ease.  
  3. Drupal and Joomla frameworks – these two are fully matured CMS frameworks. You can use their administrator services to maintain most of the work. We can integrate all APIs to make your SaaS work.
  4. Gin – It is the lowest framework built in Go. It compiles all code to the smallest executable file, and we can easily integrate all complex features.

 

Front-end frameworks

That is what your customers see and interact with in your product. You can find tons of frameworks and Javascript libraries for making a front-end. We used many in our past projects and prototype works. We were impressed by many as well.

But, selecting a front-end framework is not easy. You need to consider long-term support, extendability, performance, and ease of development into account. And after careful examination, we settled for the following;

  1. Angular framework – It is a long-standing framework backed by the Google team. It has all the modules, tools, and excellent documentation.
  2. SvelteKit framework – It is an excellent low-footprint framework. You can build any UI component using Svelte and later reuse it in the SvelteKit.  
  3. HTMX – it is a library built in Javascript. It extends your HTML pages and triggers actions directly on the server. Instead of rendering data on the client side, it forces you to build a page or layout on the server and then send it back. It is an excellent option to develop a product in the shortest possible time. I love it.

 

CSS frameworks

It helps you design your user interface layout and UI components. The Internet has many options for CSS libraries, but we settled for the following two;

  1. TailwindCSS – It is a utility-based framework. You do not find any inbuilt components. You build everything from scratch.
  2. Bootstrap – a long-standing CSS framework. Almost all websites use it somehow. Generally, we use TailwindCSS in all of our web applications.

We consider these frameworks and libraries and mix them to create a usable solution. You can review our IT outsourcing services or get a free quotation. We read your requirements and suggest the most suitable technology stack for your product.
