## What it is
Better-T-Stack is an MIT-licensed CLI tool for scaffolding end-to-end type-safe TypeScript fullstack projects with customizable stacks (frontend, backend, database, ORM, auth, addons). It also offers a web stack builder, JSON-first automation commands, and an MCP server/plugin so AI coding agents can scaffold projects.

## Use cases
- scaffold a fullstack TypeScript app with Next.js, Hono, Postgres and Better Auth
- generate a type-safe monorepo starter with tRPC and Drizzle
- create a React Native or Expo app with a Hono backend
- let an AI agent plan and generate a project stack via MCP
- bootstrap a project with Turborepo, Biome and deployment configs
- add addons like PWA, Tauri or docs to an existing scaffolded project

## When to choose
- you want a customizable, minimal TypeScript starter rather than a fixed stack
- you need end-to-end type safety across frontend, backend, and API layer
- you want reproducible scaffolding via CLI flags, JSON payloads, or AI agents
- you prefer picking only the pieces you need with zero lock-in

## When to avoid
- you need a batteries-included framework with opinionated conventions
- your project is not TypeScript/JavaScript based
- you want a fully managed hosted platform rather than generated source code you own
