40 SaaS Starter Kits & Boilerplates Based On Your Favourite Programming Language / Framework

Hello @kidino, what a great list! I have created https://www.turbojet.co. It would be great it you could add it. It's built on Node, Express and Hotwire. Thanks!

Thanks for the list @kidino, very useful. @GeoffRoberts's Outseta and @kylegawley's Gravity seem the most polished/solid - but they are quite different in approach, architecture, and in scope. I love the CRM & overall UI of Outseta, but Gravity's documentation makes it feel much easier to extend.
Any idea if/how these two can be used together on the same project?

Thanks for sharing this list, unfortunately did not find anything that works for me.

Most Node-based options look weak, few that look nice are way too expensive for a starter kit.

Ruby kits are nice, but one of them was slow, another was just a bit of mess in getting started :(

Thanks for recommending https://larakits.com.

Hi, I'm Iftekher. Creator of Larakits. If you have any questions, you can ask me from here.

So we have Djaodjin, Gravity, Launchr and SaaSForge that are both Indiehackers

Awesome guys!

thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for sharing the list. I have been building NextAPI for the past 2 months. It is a RESTful API Starter for building SaaS Apps based on Next.js, Supabase, and Prisma. It is open source and free to use. https://github.com/devkiran/NextAPI

Which boilerplate exposes an API as well ? I dont see a lot of these boilerplates being an API as well.

and on stripe subscription management - which one handles a lot of the corner cases, etc ? I feel like a lot of these boilerplates focus way too much on the UI part. But the big problem here is payments and subscriptions (which tie in to things like metering, etc)

Thank you

Great list! I would really appreciate if you could add https://saas-ui.dev to the list as well. 🙏

It's a component library and Next.js frontend for SaaS

What about this one https://www.apptension.com/saas-boilerplate? React and Python. Does anyone know about them? Some large software company is behind this saas boilerplate?

Great list @kidino!

I'm building Pace (https://adonispace.dev), a SaaS boilerplate for the AdonisJS Node.js framework.

It will be great to have it listed here as well.

Thanks!

Great List @kidino. Would be great if you can add https://www.bappaz.com to the list. It allows you to build and test complete app (React/NodeJS/database based) using visual app builder and then export full stack code base for self hosting or further enhancements.

I am also developing a boilerplate, with Django and React: https://www.hypersaas.dev/

Hey @kidino, thanks for preparing this list!

I've been working on https://geniepy.com (written in Python and uses Starlette) and wanted to ask if you're willing to update the list? :) Thanks!

Hello @kidino,

Would you please add SaaSBox to the list as well? https://saasbox.net SaaSBox is framework agnostic and also works with nocode tools. Thank you!

here are ours for Tailwind CSS.

• www.wickedblocks.dev 100% free Tailwind and AlpineJS blocks

• wickedtemplates.Com freeand premium ui kits and templates

Hello @kidino, will you be able to add mine? Its open source

Hi All and @kidino just an aside about MERNKit. All proceeds from MERNKit are donated to charities to help those struggling with addiction. To date all proceeds have been donated to https://bigvision.nyc, and some proceeds in the future will be donated to another not for profit I run to offer scholarships for an addiction support company I founded: https://youareaccountable.com/scholarships. Also, https://youareaccountable.com runs on MERNKit :).

@kidino MERNKit is online :). Our hosting provider had an outage on the exact day you checked. Sorry about that!

Great list! If other indiehackers are using flask, they can check out flask_for_startups https://github.com/nuvic/flask_for_startups

I've just launched Nextless.js React SaaS boilerplate last week. Do you mind add Nextless.js into the list?

Thanks!

Great list! I'd love to see Divjoy on the list. It gives you a complete SaaS app built with Node/React + you can customize all your technical options before exporting your code.

Just discovered that list and it's awesome for my benchmark about pricing! I'm currently working on https://www.supanextail.dev, @kidino is there a way to add it to the list? It's in beta right now but I hope to launch it soon.
Anyway I think a lot of them are overpriced, I will try to differentiate myself with lower prices.

Hi @kidino! Nice list! I'm a creator of https://easysaasboilerplate.com/ serverless saas starter kit built on top of Flask (and AWS).

Awsome!

Hey @kidino I've been working on a starter kit as well, here: https://www.indiehackers.com/product/sapling

We're making it free for a bunch of users this week! Check out our site here: https://sapling.dev/

Thanks!

Hi @kidino! Any chance you want to make it 25?

I'm the creator of Nodewood, a Javascript SaaS web app starter kit with a heavy focus on being able to re-use code and build out new features quickly in order to save a lot of time during development and when maintaining later.

In the format you have above, it would probably be:

Nodewood - Node + Vue.js SaaS starter kit. Commercial
https://nodewood.com

Check out https://boostack.io that I just launched crafted with MEVN STACK! 🚀

Would like to add https://serverless.page - a React boilerplate for building full stack SaaS applications

I would like to add my own kit to the list here: https://saasstarterkit.app

SaaS Starter Kit includes:

• Ready-made dashboard template
• TailwindCSS & FontAwesome
• Pre-built auth pages using Tailwind
• Settings pages that allow things like
  • Changing name / surname
  • Changing password
  • Managing subscription details
  • Listing invoices
• Subscription management using Stripe
  • Including support for SCA payments
  • Price management directly through the Stripe dashboard
• Docker & Docker Compose support
  • Run the whole project with all the dependencies using a single command
  • Allowing reproducible builds of the product
  • Simplifying the whole flow of adding more developers to the process
  • Simplifying the deployment options
• Full unit and feature tests for various pages/modules
• CI/CD Setup that works with the first push
  • Lints the configuration
  • Build the Docker image for the project
  • Runs the tests on every push
  • Deploys to live when the changes are merged to master
• Kubernetes & Helm support for live deployments
  • Push to deploy directly to any Kubernetes cluster
  • Standardize the deployment process

I am currently exploring Early Access options with up to 75% discount, and I'll be giving direct personal support to early adopters through email and video calls.

I have also created a coupon for IndieHackers community for an additional 10% discount during the checkout for the Early Access period, use the code indiehackersearlyaccess during checkout and the additional 10% discount will be applied automatically.

Feel free to hit me if you have any questions or feedback!

Hi, thanks a lot for this collection of SaaS Kits!

I also want to mention Carrot Seed SaaS kit (https://www.cnc.io/en/seed). It's based on Python (Django) and Angular. It provides basic features as user management, payment, mobile apps, desktop apps, etc.

Disclaimer: I'm one of the founders of Carrot Seed SaaS Kit - if you have any questions feel free to contact me.

Great list!

awesome list. thanks for sharing everyone

Hey All! I just launched my SaaS template using the MERN stack. https://mernkit.com. I'm experimenting with charging a low monthly subscription fee rather than a larger upfront cost. As someone who has bootstrapped a startup I always wanted to keep cash outlay as low as possible.

@kidino I'd be grateful if you could add it to the list! More updates to the boilerplate coming soon :).

@kidino Can we get Outseta added to this list? I'm a Co-founder, happy to answer any questions.

Thanks for pulling this list together!

Amazing list here! I purchase Gravity and I love it. A little pricey but it's worth it in time saved.

Sails.js is a full-stack framework built on top of Node and Express
https://sailsjs.com/

It's amazing: it has allowed me to forget about database queries, routing, user auth, email sending, etc.. It's heavily inspired by Rails (Sails / Rails haha) but on Node. Allowing me to have all my app written in JavaScript (+ html and css obvs).

The default version uses Vue.js for the front-end logic, but it is also possible to hook React.

Here there is a really easy to follow video explaining what it is with a general look of it's structure:
https://youtu.be/AmjiDC_JUt4

Edit: I forgot to say one of the best things it has: it's open source / free!

Thanks for the info. Does any of those stacks use Java?

Thanks for adding SaaS Forge!
CaravelKit is mine too but I don't maintain it anymore so can you please remove it from your list? Thanks!
