Shipfast

Overview

ShipFast (by vietanhdev, at shipfast.dev) is a free, MIT-licensed SaaS source base aimed at generative AI and LLM products. It is a heavily modified fork of Apptension's SaaS Boilerplate, pairing a React and GraphQL front end styled with Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui with a Python and Django back end, on the reasoning that AI projects usually run Python.

The repository is an Nx monorepo using pnpm workspaces, targets AWS through AWS CDK, and runs locally with docker-compose. The README marks it as a work in progress: account management, Stripe subscriptions, a Contentful CMS, OpenAI integration and a business idea generator are done, while document chat, a writing assistant and an image generator are still on the roadmap.

Features

• Accounts: Login, logout and user profile management.
• Subscriptions: Stripe billing through dj-stripe.
• CMS: Contentful integration for content.
• OpenAI integration: A simple API integration plus a keyword-based business idea generator.
• Monorepo CLI: pnpm shipfast commands start the backend, webapp and local docs together or separately.
• AWS infrastructure: Deployment defined in AWS CDK, with Sentry for error tracking.

Tech stack

• React, Vite, Apollo Client, GraphQL
• Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, Storybook, Jest
• Python, Django, Django REST Framework, Graphene Django, Postgres
• Nx, AWS CDK, docker-compose
