This is the end of outdated JavaScript boilerplates

Every developer has done it: you find a boilerplate on GitHub, clone it with hope in your heart… and then spend the next hours fighting with broken dependencies, irrelevant packages, or a stack that just doesn’t feel right 😤

❌ Boilerplates Are Broken by Nature

JavaScript evolves fast — and boilerplates can’t keep up.

• Libraries get outdated quickly: think Next.js migrations, or the introduction of Svelte Runes.
• Tools get replaced: Prisma is giving way to Drizzle, Auth.js is being outpaced by alternatives like BetterAuth.
• “Complete” boilerplates are often too bloated — they come with tools you don’t need, or an opinionated stack that doesn’t match your project.

🧼 You often spend more time cleaning up a boilerplate than building your actual app.

But here’s the truth: There is no ultimate stack. Each project has its own needs.

• A lightweight site? → Astro + DaisyUI ☁️
• A powerful dashboard? → Next.js + React + tRPC ⚙️
• Something totally custom? You should be free to choose 💡
