After 4 months of building QuickStartCommerce, an eCommerce starter kit for developers and founders, we finally crossed that magical milestone โ our first paying customer!
This isnโt just a sale, itโs validation.
โจ Why I built it
As a dev, I was constantly rebuilding the same stuff โ authentication, product listings, checkout, admin panels. So I created a starter kit that includes all of it โ built with Next.js, Node.js, MongoDB, and Stripe integration, ready to deploy.
โ๏ธ Whatโs inside
Full auth (guest + logged-in checkout)
Admin panel to manage products, orders, users
Stripe + SMTP email confirmations
Fully documented with Postman collection
Built for indie hackers & devs launching fast
๐ I listed it on Codester a couple of days ago, and boom โ first sale just came through:

Honestly, the feeling of someone paying for your work is unmatched. ๐
