Full-Stack App Starter

Auth, roles, audit logging, and CI baked into a production starter.

Full-Stack App Starter cover

Problem

Teams repeatedly bootstrap apps from scratch; wiring auth, roles, emailing, logging, CI/CD, and infra each time. Delivery slows, security drifts, and every project solves the same platform problems again.

Approach

Created a hardened starter with opinionated defaults: JWT auth + roles/permissions, audit logging, request tracing, background jobs, file storage, env management, and first-class CI. Local dev mirrors prod via Docker compose. GitHub Actions handles lint/test/build/security scans and deploys. Terraform-ready for cloud infra.

Results

✓ 5–10 days saved on every new service bootstrap

✓ Consistent security posture (linting, SAST, dependency scans in CI)

✓ One-click env spins for dev/stage/prod with versioned configs

✓ Fewer regressions via smoke tests & audit trails
