How a team of three built an extensible Web analytics SaaS in three weeks with Next.js
summary
A team of three builds an extensible web-analytics tracker and dashboard in three weeks using Next.js, Vercel Edge functions and Tinybird, with a one‑click GitHub deploy that sends NDJSON to the Tinybird Events API. The snippet captures anonymized events, infers country from timezone, emits a random decision ID for session metrics, and supports custom events. The kit scales via serverless edge middleware, already deployed on 120+ sites, and the dashboard endpoints are SQL‑backed low‑latency APIs.
