Ask HN: Best way to make professional site with form and stripe integration?

1 points by Man_On_the_Moon ↗ HN
Hi HN - I had a question:

I often think of an idea that I can test with a pretty simple MVP. Assume I have wireframes and mocks. Let's assume these are the rough parts.

1) main page with a video and some explanatory content below the fold

2) order form where customer specifies their requirements

3) payment integration to process credit card transaction (say Stripe).

What's the best solution?

Out-of-the-box solutions like Wixx seem like they just don't have enough functionality to do a good job here. They are easy to spot and don't let you differentiate enough IMO.

It the solution leveraging a Word Press-esque solution that will have all of these integrations? I am particularly wary of hiring one of the many contractors who specialize in Word Press.

Is it best to just have a front-end engineer build from scratch (leveraging existing libraries of course)?

Curious what the current thinking is around this. "Best" to me means 1) Works correctly on on spec 2) Professional looking 3) Cheap and 4) Secure and 5) Easy to make small changes.
