Bullet Train is an open-source Ruby on Rails application template for building SaaS products. It provides a batteries-included starting point with authentication, teams, billing, and common SaaS scaffolding.

Use cases

  • build a saas product with rails
  • rails starter template with authentication and billing
  • kickstart a multi-tenant ruby on rails app
  • bootstrap a subscription web application
  • create a new rails app with teams and user management

When to choose

  • you are starting a new Ruby on Rails SaaS application from scratch
  • you want prebuilt authentication, teams, and billing scaffolding
  • you prefer convention-driven Rails development with a curated stack

When to avoid

  • you are maintaining an existing Rails app that cannot adopt the template structure
  • you need a framework outside Ruby or Rails
  • you want a minimal, unopinionated starting point
