About the Engineer Foodie

Some people read the menu. I read the menu, the supplier list, the pricing page and the terms of service, then I order.

Engineer Foodie is a working engineer's notebook on building, launching and monetizing apps the frugal way. Every recipe here is about software: which stack to pick, what it really costs per month, how to ship, and how to get paid.

House rules

• Research before tasting. Claims link to official docs or pricing pages.
• Real numbers only. No made-up stats. If I don't know, I say so.
• Cheapest thing that works. Free tiers first, upgrade only when it pays for itself.

Some posts may contain affiliate links. I only recommend tools I'd use myself, and it never changes the price for you.
