## What it is
ShipFree is a free, open-source Next.js SaaS boilerplate (a ShipFast alternative) with prewired authentication, payments, email, database, and UI. It is built with TypeScript, Bun, Drizzle ORM, PostgreSQL, TailwindCSS, Better-Auth, and multiple payment/email provider adapters.

## Use cases
- start a new SaaS product with auth and payments already wired
- find a free alternative to ShipFast for Next.js
- bootstrap a Next.js app with Stripe subscriptions and webhooks
- set up a Next.js project with Drizzle ORM and Postgres migrations
- build a multi-language SaaS with i18n routing
- add transactional email and rate limiting to a Next.js app quickly

## When to choose
- you want a production-ready Next.js SaaS starter with auth, payments, and email preconfigured
- you prefer Bun, Drizzle ORM, and PostgreSQL in your stack
- you need multi-provider adapters for payments (Stripe, Polar, Lemon Squeezy, Creem) and email (Resend, Postmark, Plunk)
- you want i18n with locale-aware routing out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need a framework-agnostic or non-Next.js starter
- you want a fully managed SaaS platform rather than a self-hosted codebase
- your stack centers on a different ORM, database, or runtime than Bun/Drizzle/Postgres
