PolarOpen source monetization platform for developers

Also considered:
As a solo indie developer, I wanted to skip the business-entity overhead that Stripe and some others expect upfront. Polar handles merchant-of-record duties, so I don't have to deal with tax compliance across countries myself. It was built with solo devs and small teams in mind, which matched exactly where I was at launch.

I wanted an editor that stays out of the way for a solo build. VS Code has the extension ecosystem I needed for Chrome extension development, solid TypeScript support out of the box, and I didn't want to spend time learning a new editor when I could be shipping. The debugging tools for extensions specifically made testing the recording and export pipeline much faster.

I needed the lumiko.dev site live fast without fiddling with deploy configs. Vercel's git-based deploys meant every push went live automatically, and the free tier covered everything I needed for a marketing site and docs. One less thing to manage while building the actual extension solo.
