Rather than teaching SaaS development in the abstract, this course builds a real product from the ground up, covering the database, server, and interface work needed to take an idea to a finished application.
Features you build along the way
- Real-time video recording and streaming without relying on third-party libraries, plus instant sharing links
- Team workspaces, an activity feed for comments, and view counts per video
- AI-generated transcriptions, video summaries, and titles
- A desktop app built with Electron.js, including screen and webcam capture in 720p and 1080p
- An Express server handling real-time sockets, with videos uploaded to AWS
- Stripe billing with tiered pricing plans, and a CMS for marketing content
