Hi @e1.victor.o. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the knowledge sources provided, Wasp appears to be well-suited for building a full-fledged bill payment web app. Here's why:
1. Full-stack capabilities: Wasp is designed for building full-stack web applications, covering client, server, and database aspects Introduction. This makes it suitable for a comprehensive bill payment system.
2. Real-time updates: Wasp provides built-in support for WebSockets, which is crucial for real-time features in a bill payment app. It offers a fully integrated WebSocket experience using Socket.IO Web Sockets.
3. Payment integrations: While not explicitly mentioned in the provided sources, Wasp's ability to work with existing technologies like React and Node.js suggests that integrating payment systems should be feasible.
4. Database scaling: Wasp uses Prisma for database operations, which supports various databases. While DigitalOcean isn't specifically mentioned, Wasp's flexibility in working with different technologies implies that it could potentially work with a DigitalOcean database Introduction.
5. Efficiency and best practices: Wasp aims to provide industry best practices out of the box and claims to enable building web apps with "10x less code and less stack-specific knowledge" Introduction > Wasp is a DSL.
6. Security features: Wasp includes built-in security best practices, which is crucial for a bill payment application Introduction.
However, it's important to note that Wasp is still in development, and some advanced features or specific integrations might require custom implementation or workarounds. The efficiency and scalability for a production-level bill payment app would depend on the specific requirements and the scale of your project.
For a more definitive answer, you might want to reach out to the Wasp team directly or consult their more detailed documentation, as the provided knowledge sources don't cover all aspects of building a complex bill payment system.

Sorry @e1.victor.o, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist:
Perhaps try again in 15mins?
How would I reach out to the team

Just tag @Wasp Team
I’d recommend not tagging the entire team until there has been some delay in a community or team response. 3 hours isn’t much time. Especially on a weekend @genyus
To answer your question the underlying technology is perfectly capable of this. Have you reviewed the docs and https://opensaas.sh yet @e1.victor.o ?
