# I Built A SaaS Startup In 2 Months, Here's What I Learned.

**[Hashnode](https://daily.dev/sources/hashnode)** · [@jarrodwatts](https://daily.dev/jarrodwatts) · 14 min read · 76 upvotes · 3 comments

## Summary

Upsocial aims to be an all-in-one social media dashboard built for content creators. It uses social media API's to track and store your profile and content growth over time, and display that information in a simple dashboard. Upsocial uses all of my favourite technologies, and is 100% serverless. It takes advantage of some of the same technologies that Hashnode utilizes too!
