i totally get what you mean about getting lost in the generated files. it's crucial that the output is manageable and easy to work with. at moonshift, you can quickly build a full next.js app with postgres and auth deployed in around 7 minutes. you have complete control over the code on your github. let me know if you're interested in a free run to see how it goes.

For small projects, that kind of workflow sounds very useful. But once the project becomes a large business system, generated files can easily become a forest... 😿🌳

Is Moonshift more like a boilerplate application generator?

I think it could become even more interesting if it had a strong integration story with OpenAPI codegen. Passing types from the server side to the frontend in a loosely coupled way is still a hard problem, especially in larger systems.

So if Moonshift can help with that boundary, I think there may be real demand for it. 😺
