## What it is
A full-stack Next.js starter template by McKay Wrigley that bundles a preconfigured tech stack: Next.js, Tailwind, Shadcn, Framer Motion, PostgreSQL via Supabase with Drizzle ORM, Clerk auth, and Stripe payments. It is meant to be cloned as a starting point for new SaaS-style web applications.

## Use cases
- start a new full-stack next.js project quickly
- saas starter template with auth and payments
- boilerplate with supabase drizzle and clerk
- template for building apps with ai coding tools
- kickstart a subscription app with stripe billing
- full-stack typescript app scaffold

## When to choose
- you want a batteries-included Next.js + Supabase + Clerk + Stripe stack
- you're building a typical SaaS web app and don't want to wire up auth, ORM, and payments yourself
- you follow McKay Wrigley's AI-assisted development workflows

## When to avoid
- you prefer different choices for auth, database, or payments (e.g., NextAuth, Prisma, Paddle)
- you need a non-Next.js framework like Remix, SvelteKit, or Django
- you want a minimal scaffold without third-party service dependencies
