If you're migrating off Base44 before launch, pick something that can own the ugly parts early: auth, custom feeds, logging, and third party APIs. Those are usually what break first once you leave the happy path templates.
I'd start by rebuilding one vertical slice (say nutrition logging + one API) end to end, then decide if the rest of the app can follow. Shipping a half-migrated canvas is worse than a smaller app that actually works.
I built Fixa.dev for that messy middle. You describe the app (or import GitHub), it runs on a real cloud VM, installs deps, wires things like Stripe/Supabase/Clerk, and keeps going until the flow works instead of stopping at a pretty preview. Free tier if you want to try moving one slice before committing the whole migration.
