How to Build Pro Bono


I’ve written js python at big tech and would like to build a saas app for a friend whose employer won’t invest in their team’s productivity.

This is a simple scheduling app for a team of 20 to collaborate more effectively.

What’s the right stack to use for something like this? It has to be adopted virally by the team it can’t be sold as an enterprise solution to the formal organization.

I'm going to put aside the urge to say to just not do this as corporations don't need free work, and instead answer the question at face value. I see two correct answers:

1) Whatever stack you know best.

2) Whatever stack they already run.

If those match up, it is an easy answer.
