Hi HN,

I’ve been building SaaS products for a while, and I started getting "setup fatigue." Every time I validated a new idea, I lost the first two weeks just configuring Docker, wrestling with Stripe webhooks, and setting up Auth flows.

The market defaults to Next.js for everything right now. While Next is great, I found myself missing the structure of a dedicated backend framework. I wanted the type-safety and "batteries-included" feel of AdonisJS (think Laravel for Node) paired with the reactivity of the new Nuxt 4.

I spent the last few months building a production-grade architecture to solve this for myself, and I decided to package it up as a starter kit.

The Stack: - Frontend: Nuxt 4 (TypeScript) + shadcn/vue - Backend: AdonisJS v6 (TypeScript) - Database: PostgreSQL + Redis - Infra: Fully containerized with Docker (includes Mailhog for local email testing)

The "Hard Parts" I automated: 1. Multi-Tenancy: A full Team system where users can invite others and assign roles (RBAC). 2. Testing: I wrote 195 backend integration tests. I specifically wanted to avoid the "untested boilerplate" trap. 3. Billing: Pre-wired Stripe Checkout and Customer Portal handling webhook events.

It is a paid product, but I'd love for you to check out the architecture or the demo. I'm happy to answer any questions about the migration to Nuxt 4 or using Adonis in 2026.
