How does Vercel compare to Github Pages, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, etc. How does Heroku / Railway factor into this landscape?
Also what is the "stack" for running a website if you use Vercel for the frontend? Do they handle the backend as well or do you still need an AWS account etc...
Last question: What do you see as the north star for this business? Can this replace "Nike.com" / other large websites or will it always be a prosumer esque business?
You may want to be careful describing it as "stupidly easily" since that would imply that anyone having difficulty is "stupid."

Cool. I knew Vercel hosted front-end web apps, but I never knew they had managed storage and databases too. I’ll have to try it out sometime.
Thanks for this lucid easy summary Justin.
