Ask HN: How would you build a prototype in 2020?

3 points by frenchie4111 ↗ HN
I have a few ideas, and I want to build a few working prototypes. I've been looking around, and trying to figure out how to get there fastest.

What technologies would you use to slap together a working prototype?

is it a hardware of a software prototype?
Software primarily, but I am interested in an answer for both
Consider create-react-app and Prisma for a basic CRUD application. If you need advanced or enterprise-y features, you will outgrow Prisma quickly.

If you have used VTL before and are comfortable with it, AWS AppSync is also worth a look. Particularly if you can make use of AWS' auth solution.

Those will get you to something basic fast.
