    I’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…

    I wanted to build simple apps to launch over the weekend. I was so frustrated implementing billing, stripe, auth, quota management, etc. I just gave up. So I made Indie Kit Login users, process payments, send emails at lightspeed. Spend your time building your startup, not integrating APIs. Indie Kit provides you with the boilerplate code you need to launch, FASTER THAN EVER.

    Ever since AI made it 10x easier to build apps I've been shipping like crazy. The one thing I didn't do was show off. Building is fun, but if no one sees how cool your app is then what's the point? There's where brag.fast comes in.

    Hey HN, I'm a solopreneur and I ship apps like a madman. 16 startups in the last 2 years. I realized I was doing the same thing over and over: set up DNS records, connect DB, listen to Stripe webhooks... So I built ShipFast for 2 reasons: 1. Save time and focus on what matters: building a business 2. Avoid headaches like emails ending in spam or waiting 3 days for Google to approve I hope this boilerplate will be as helpful to you as it is for me. Would love your feedback pls Marc

    Hi HN, I'm Mohammed, a technical founder who loves shipping and giving back to the community. I'm open-sourcing the full-stack engine that powers my B2B product, apflow.co. What it is: A production B2B starter with a Go backend and Next.js frontend. Both are fully Dockerized with separate containers. No Vercel. No Supabase. Deploy the whole thing on a $6 VPS, or split frontend and backend across different providers. You own the infrastructure. The problem I was solving: Every SaaS starter I evaluated had the same issue: they locked me into someone else's platform. Vercel for hosting.…
