A list of 8 open-source projects the author suggests using as foundations for paid services: Cal.com-style scheduling tools, self-hosted analytics with Plausible, Ghost for blogs/newsletters/memberships, n8n for custom workflow automation, Supabase for SaaS backends, Medusa for custom e-commerce, AppFlowy for private workspaces, and Coolify for self-hosted deployment services. The thesis: customize proven open source rather than building from scratch.
