What it does

Building a fully functional web application is hard. It's overwhelming. There are so many choices! Is Rails the right choice? How do you install a theme or template? Just imagine the application you want to build and start reading this book

Learn how to build a production SaaS application in Ruby on Rails 8. 400+ page book covering authentication, Hotwire, Solid Queue, Stripe payments, webhooks, GitHub integrations, and Kamal 2 deployment. By Rob Race.

This book connects the parts that turn a Rails app into a paid product: accounts, background jobs, email, Stripe subscriptions, webhooks, real-time UI, and deployment. Follow it front to back for a complete build, or use it as a practical guide to modern Rails 8 systems. Across 14 chapters you'll build a Daily Standup app with teams, paid plans, real-time updates, and third-party integrations. Every chapter adds to the same finished codebase, so you can follow the build in order or inspect the completed application. Enter your email and I'll send the first sample chapter to your inbox, followed by a few more over the next several days. You'll see the writing style, the level of detail, and…from buildasaasappinrails.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
