Step 2: Update Your Landing Page

1. Open the file located at /frontend/src/app/app.component.html.

2. Replace its content with the following:

   <app-header></app-header>
   <main>
     <app-hero></app-hero>
     <app-problem></app-problem>
     <app-features></app-features>
     <app-pricing></app-pricing>
     <app-faq></app-faq>
     <app-cta></app-cta>
   </main>
   <app-footer></app-footer>

3. Save the file. This sets up your landing page structure with the predefined components.

Step 3: Customize the Content

Each component file contains tips for writing compelling copy:

• Header: Update your logo and navigation links.
• Hero: Add a headline and a call-to-action.
• Problem: Define the problem your SaaS solves.
• Features: Highlight your product features.
• Pricing: Include pricing tiers or subscription plans.
• FAQ: Answer common questions.
• CTA: Add a call-to-action to engage your users.

Step 4: Add a Waitlist Form (Optional)

To collect emails for a waitlist:

1. Go to /backend/src/app/lead/lead.controller.ts and uncomment the API endpoint for saving emails:

   import { Body, Controller, Post } from '@nestjs/common';
    
   @Controller('leads')
   export class LeadsController {
     @Post()
     saveLead(@Body() lead: { email: string }) {
       // Save the email to your database
       return { success: true };
     }
   }

2. In the frontend, update your call-to-action button in the Hero, Pricing, and CTA sections with the following:

   <button-lead></button-lead>

   For a full-width button in the Pricing section, use:

   <button-lead class="full-width"></button-lead>
