About this course

Stack-choice is your speed ceiling. A rudimentary Airbnb in a week is realistic when your stack is dialed. This course is Allen's full opinion — what to use, why, and the cost math that nobody documents.

What you'll learn

Why your stack choice matters more than your prompts
Allen's 5-piece foundation and how the pieces lock together
When you need a VPS vs when Vercel is enough
The Google Workspace trick that keeps client work isolated and clean
Real cost math — Vercel free tier limits, Supabase per-instance, when to scale up
25+ AI bonus tools — LLMs, image/video, voice, dev, business, comms, PM/design
The 3 pitfalls of picking the wrong stack
