AI Analysis

●●SolidSolve My ProblemShip It

Bundled Go SaaS boilerplate, but Laravel Forge, Reflex, and Wasp already do this.

Strengths
  • •Pre-integrated auth, payments, and email—legitimately saves setup friction for Go+templ stack
  • •One-time purchase with lifetime updates avoids SaaS subscription fatigue for devs
  • •Opinionated defaults (CSRF, CSP, rate limiting) baked in without configuration overhead
Weaknesses
  • •Crowded category: Ruby on Rails, Laravel, Wasp, and Reflex all solve 'SaaS boilerplate' equally well
  • •No clear technical differentiation—bundling existing libraries (Stripe, Resend, Tailwind) isn't novel
Target Audience

Go developers building SaaS products with templ templating engine

Post Description

Hi HN,

I’m building two products for Go + templ developers:

goilerplate - a Go boilerplate with auth, payments, email, blog/docs, SEO, and more - https://goilerplate.com

templUI Pro - premium UI blocks for Go + templ - https://pro.templui.io

Both are one-time purchases with lifetime updates.

Would love feedback on positioning, packaging, and overall clarity.

Shipfast.so – Next.js boilerplate with auth, payments, email, database

Shipfast is essentially a curated, clone‑and‑go Next.js repo that tackles the annoying plumbing — real Auth0 flows, Stripe webhooks, Resend transactional emails, MDX blog, and even an AGENTS.md for LLM integration. That focus on the pain points devs actually waste time on (payments + email + auth) is the selling point; it's not novel technology, just useful, well‑assembled wiring with sensible defaults and a dark UI.
