DigitalOcean MVP + MySQL Import

I need a developer to quickly deploy an MVP on a DigitalOcean droplet.

I already have:

Tailwind HTML UI (prototype ready)

MySQL database backup that needs to be imported

I need help with:

Importing the MySQL database to the droplet

Minimal server configuration

Connecting the UI to the database through a lightweight backend API (FastAPI preferred, Node acceptable)

Basic deployment setup so core features run end-to-end

Goal: Fast working MVP — simple, clean setup — single droplet — no overengineering

Please include:

Relevant deployment experience

Estimated turnaround time

Rate or fixed price
