Next SaaS Starter

My personal template for building full-stack SaaS apps with Next.js and TypeScript.

Stack

• Next.js
• Prisma
• trpc
• Chakra UI
• Docker Compose, for external services like Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch, etc
• Fly.io for hosting

Setup

Development

In one tab, spin up Postgres:

docker compose up

In another tab, setup the app:

cd app
pnpm install
pnpm db:migrate

Then, start the development server:

pnpm dev

The app should be available at http://localhost:3000, where you should see something like this:

Setting up email authentication

This app is setup to authenticate users with a magic link that gets sent via email by way of Mailgun. You'll need to replace the values of the MAILGUN_* variables in .env to get that to work.
