## What it is
NextFaster is a highly performant e-commerce template built with Next.js 15, featuring partial prerendering, Server Actions, Drizzle ORM on Neon Postgres, and AI-generated product content. It ships with over a million seeded products and demonstrates a fast, edge-served storefront architecture.

## Use cases
- build a fast e-commerce storefront with next.js
- starter template for an online shop
- learn partial prerendering in next.js 15
- seed a demo store with a million products
- see server actions and drizzle orm in a real app
- generate product descriptions and images with ai

## When to choose
- you want a production-style Next.js e-commerce starting point
- you want to study partial prerendering and edge-served page shells
- you need a large seeded product catalog for demos or benchmarks

## When to avoid
- you need a full production commerce platform with payments and order management out of the box
- you are not using the Vercel/Neon ecosystem
- you need a framework-agnostic or non-React storefront
