Roast my boilerplate that supposedly helps people launch in 48 hours instead of months

So honestly I've been building this thing for the past few months because I got so tired of redoing the same setup every single time I had a new idea, like authentication, payments, all that boring stuff that takes forever but nobody actually cares about

Basically I packaged everything into shipahe.ad so you can skip all the setup hell and just focus on building the actual unique thing people will pay for, idk if that makes sense but yeah, the whole philosophy is just ship fast and stop wasting time on boilerplate code, I built it with Nuxt and threw in Stripe, auth, database, admin panel, multi-language support, transactional emails, SEO stuff, blog setup, file storage, PWA config and some integrations ready to go

The three features beta users kept asking for were better documentation with more examples, a cleaner onboarding flow because apparently mine was confusing lol, and more starter templates for different niches like AI tools or marketplaces or whatever, tbh I'm trying to figure out if this is actually solving a real problem or if I'm just building something I personally wanted

Honestly I want the harsh feedback because I'm planning my roadmap right now and I'd rather know what sucks before I waste more time, like what's actually missing that would make this useful for you, or is the whole concept just dumb and I should pivot

    Usually, nobody can launch a full app within 48 hours, even with a boilerplate, except in cases when the app is very simple.

    What exactly is "revolutionary" in your boilerplate? How is it different from others?
