Features
- Full Testing Stack: Vitest (unit), Playwright (E2E), Storybook (component) all pre-configured.
- GitHub Actions CI: Lint + type-check + test + E2E + Codecov + Sentry + bundle analysis — all in one workflow.
- Database: Drizzle ORM with type-safe migrations, no Prisma overhead.
- Code Quality: Husky pre-commit hooks, Commitlint, ESLint, Prettier — enforced at every commit.
Use Cases
- Starting a production Next.js project that needs to scale to a team.
- Copying the CI/CD pipeline structure into any existing Next.js project.
- Learning the current best-practice stack for modern full-stack web apps.
Technical Advantages
- 9K+ stars means it tracks the community consensus on what “good” looks like.
- Drizzle instead of Prisma: significantly faster migrations and better TypeScript inference.
- Codecov + Sentry integration means you get test coverage and error monitoring from day one.
