Accounts needed

Running Teini should be easy and for free. Although you'll need to create some accounts to make it work:

Account Description/What it does Link
Vercel Deploys and keeps the actual website running. It's awesome. https://vercel.com/
Stripe Provides the whole checkout and payment infrastructure. It's awesome, too. https://stripe.com
Github/Gitlab The place where the source code is stored. Awesome - yep. https://github.com

🤑 While Vercel and Github should be free while respecting their fair use policies, Stripe will cost some money. Fortunately, these are transaction-dependent.
