## What it is
A monorepo template (seed project) pre-configured with a GraphQL API server, PostgreSQL database tooling, and a React front-end using TypeScript. It bundles GraphQL Yoga, Pothos, Prisma/Knex, Google Identity Platform auth, Vite, and Terraform/Cloud Run deployment setup.

## Use cases
- bootstrap a full-stack GraphQL API project with TypeScript
- start a monorepo with GraphQL API and React front-end
- scaffold a Node.js GraphQL server with PostgreSQL migrations
- quickly set up a hackathon project with API and UI
- template for deploying a GraphQL API to Cloud Run with Terraform
- seed project with authentication and database tooling preconfigured

## When to choose
- you want a batteries-included TypeScript monorepo for a GraphQL API plus React app
- you need pre-wired auth, database migrations, and multi-environment deployment
- you're starting a new project or hackathon and want to skip boilerplate setup

## When to avoid
- you need a minimal or custom stack rather than an opinionated template
- your project doesn't use GraphQL, PostgreSQL, or React
- you want a framework or runtime library rather than a starting template to maintain yourself
