Ask HN: How does one create a service like Vercel or Heroku?
As the title says, could someone lay out what would it look infrastructure/architecture wise to create one of those services?
I spend most of my time creating CRUD apps but I'm finding out I want to learn more of how the web really works.
For example, I know that for Heroku there are Open Source projects like CapRover [1] that fulfill similar needs. Would it be good to study the code of that project to understand how it works?
What technologies should I study? I'm thinking I should learn:
* Docker
* Nginx
* AWS (S3, EC2, API Gateway, ...any other?)
Thanks in advance!!
