Great thoughts. Actually I could host this on an RPi as I’m close in proximity to the user base. Lightsail is very interesting, I’ll take a look.

Is MERN stack still in demand?

>Is MERN stack still in demand?

For getting a job? Express is probably less common in enterprise, but since the whole stack is JS/TS you'll have no problem porting your knowledge from that to any of the newer server-side frameworks. React is to my knowledge still the most widely used framework in modern front-end development.

Regarding self-hosting, make sure you look into isolating the RPi you use to serve your app from the rest of your home network as much as possible, and change the default password.

Yep, fully agree about React being the most widely used framework.

And yes, good point on the Pi.
