I make https://bedrock.mxstbr.com https://bedrock.mxstbr.com, selling a full-stack Next.js & GraphQL boilerplate for building SaaS products, which comes with:
* A complete TypeScript toolchain with end-to-end typesafety from the database to the client
* User authentication
* Subscription payments
* Teams
* Invitations
It's also completely unstyled, which is somewhat unusual in this space. I've found that most of the time, people would just delete all the styling anyway, so instead, the frontend only contains the minimal code necessary to make the functionality work.
I originally launched it in February last year, and it's still going strong now!
- em1sar 4y agoHi, big fan of Rebass, Theme UI..although sometimes Theme UI with Next.js doesn't work right out of the box, are you still the maintainer of these libraries? And how did you get the word out for your boilerplate product, just on Twitter? Do you have any tips on how to find a niche where a good, well maintained boilerplate is missing and how to make it profitable? Thanks
- mxstbr 4y agoThanks for the nice words! I stopped maintaining ThemeUI when I left Gatsby in 2021. In terms of getting the word out, it's really all based on my personal audience. I haven't found a repeatable marketing channel outside of just… tweeting about it, which is also visible in declining sales as I saturate that channel. Would love to hear your thoughts!
