Hi HN! I've been building ReadyKit, an open-source SaaS boilerplate that handles all the hard parts: multi-tenant workspaces, Stripe billing, OAuth + MFA authentication, and a production-ready stack. Built with Python/Flask, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Vue 3, it's designed for indie makers and teams who want to ship SaaS products fast. Clone, configure your OAuth and Stripe keys, and you're running in 5 minutes. Features include automatic query scoping for workspace isolation, audit logs, role-based access, and a modern UX kit.

Hi HN! I am Marvin Danig, a developer from Washington DC, and I am building Red Goose (https://goose.red). Red Goose is a web app to mobile app conversion engine that produces ready-to-publish apps for the app stores using GitHub repos. There was a discussion on HN a few weeks ago about how a developer shaved off almost half of their native app's code without losing functionality [1]. Our launch today is a direct outcome of that thread and, moreso, in the context of this comment [2] and this one [3]. Paraphrasing the context below: > "Fastmail is the only email/calendar app…

ShipAhead▲30I’ve spent months building SaaS apps with Nuxt and kept hitting the same wall — setup time. Every project needed auth, payments, a dashboard layout, SEO setup, and deployment config from scratch. So I built *ShipAhead*, a Nuxt 4 boilerplate that’s production-ready out of the box. It’s designed for developers who want to skip the repetitive setup and start building real features immediately. *Tech stack:* Nuxt 4, Vue 3, TailwindCSS, DaisyUI Auth: Better Auth DB: Drizzle ORM + Postgres (Neon) Storage: Cloudflare R2 Email: Resend + Vue Email Payments: Stripe Analytics: Umami AI: OpenRouter API…

KMPShip▲15Hey HN, I'm an indie developer who has been building mobile apps for a while. After repeating the same setup across projects (auth, CI/CD, payments, notifications), I built a boilerplate to save time and focus on actual features. KMPShip is a Kotlin/Compose Multiplatform boilerplate that helps you build Android and iOS apps from a single shared codebase. It includes: Shared codebase (for UI, domain and data layers), Firebase Auth, Google/Apple sign-in, In-App purchases & subscriptions, local & push notifications, CI/CD setup, full documentation and a small community space…
