Categories

Find your stack

Browse by category when you already know the shape of the project.

Frontend Applications
Client-side and content-first starters for SPAs and static sites.

Pick these when you need a browser UI without a full-stack framework — React + Vite for SPAs, Astro for content sites.

View Templates
Backend Applications
API and service starters for NestJS, Hono, and similar Node backends.

Use when the deliverable is an HTTP API or worker — NestJS for modular services, Hono for lean edge/serverless handlers.

View Templates
Full Stack Applications
Frameworks that own routing, rendering, and server logic in one app.

Choose Next.js or React Router (Remix) when UI and server routes should live in the same codebase.

View Templates
Monorepo Boilerplate
Multi-package workspaces with shared tooling and release flow.

Start here when you need apps and packages in one repo with Turborepo pipelines and Changesets.

View Templates
User Acceptance Testing
Browser automation projects for end-to-end acceptance suites.

Use when the repo itself is a WebdriverIO (or similar) test harness, not an application under test.

View Templates
Web Extension
Browser extension starters with React and Vite.

Scaffold popup, options, and newtab surfaces that target Chrome, Firefox, and Edge via WebExtension APIs.
