It all started when I saw Marc Lou launched ShipFast (a paid Next.js startup boilerplate). I wanted to build something similar for SvelteKit. I was planning to make it a paid product, but ended up open sourcing it.

You can see KitForStartups as a toolkit you can use to prototype and ship faster your MVPs, web applications, etc.

It comes with support for many databases (SQLite w/Turso, MySQL and Postgres), authentication (email + password, OAuth with Google and GitHub), email sending with Resend (local emails are configured to be sent with MailHog for faster debugging), toast notifications with Melt UI, etc…

I’m still actively working on the project and on things like support for Supabase, magic link authentication, MailGun, a CLI, etc…

Give a look at the repo here https://github.com/okupter/kitforstartups, and please feel free to open an issue or PR is there’s something you’d like to see included.
