I’ve learned quite a lot about backend options in the past two weeks. I’m migrating my tech stack to use GKE, the Kubernetes and Agones platform Google Cloud supports after experiencing the complexity of setting up a Managed Instance Group. I’m also using some services from Firebase. The lesson has been utilize what is already a solved problem as much as possible, especially as a solo dev. I’m feeling more confident as we (Kiro, Claude Code CLI, and me).
