Many of them are excellent, but I wanted something that matched the way I build products today—using SvelteKit and Cloudflare Workers.</p> <p>That eventually became <strong>SvelteCraft</strong>.</p> <h2> <strong>What is SvelteCraft?</strong> </h2> <p>SvelteCraft is a production-ready SaaS starter built with SvelteKit and optimized for Cloudflare Workers.</p> <p>It includes:</p> <ul> <li>Authentication</li> <li>Stripe Billing</li> <li>PostgreSQL / Cloudflare D1</li> <li>Cloudflare R2</li> <li>SEO</li> <li>Admin Dashboard</li> <li>Production-ready project structure</li> </ul> <p>The goal isn’t to include every possible feature.</p> <p>It’s to provide a clean foundation that lets developers spend more time building products instead of rebuilding infrastructure.</p> <h2> <strong>Why Cloudflare?</strong> </h2> <p>One of the biggest reasons was operational simplicity.</p> <p>Cloudflare Workers provide global deployment, low latency, and a modern developer experience.</p> <p>Combined with D1 and R2, it’s possible to build many SaaS products without managing traditional servers.</p> <h2> <strong>Looking for feedback</strong> </h2> <p>I’m continuing to improve SvelteCraft and would love to hear from other developers.</p> <ul> <li>What do you rebuild for every SaaS?</li> <li>What features do you expect from a modern starter?</li> <li>What would make a starter worth paying for?</li> </ul> <p>Website:</p> <p><a href="https://sveltecraft.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://sveltecraft.com</a></p> <p>I’d really appreciate your feedback.</p> svelte sveltecraft productivity typescript
