Ask HN: If you had to develop happytables, which technologies will you use?

This could be done with anything you are comfortable with.
I would personally use Ruby on Rails for this task. As this is what I know the best.
So here what you can use in Rails to do that:
- To manage your accounts you can use different auth gems: https://www.ruby-toolbox.com/categories/rails_authentication here is the big list of them.
- To make a billing system you can use: https://stripe.com/
- There is a really easy approach for making REST API in Rails

If you are asked to develop a SAAS application similar to happytables which language/framework/technologies you will choose? Why?
Here are some features you may need to implement :
1) Account Management & Billing System
2) Admin Backend : Where customers can login and update their website information. It should be available as both web & mobile app.
3) Front-End should be made available as installable themes (similar to wordpress themes). Third party developers should be able to develop a custom theme using HTML,CSS,javascript, etc.
4) REST API
