Why I Built a Terminal-Aesthetic Next.js Boilerplate

The Problem

Every SaaS looks the same. Rounded corners. Blue buttons. Generic feel.

And most boilerplates:

• Lock you into one payment provider (Stripe only)
• Use outdated stacks (Next.js 13/14, NextAuth v4)
• Don't enforce TypeScript strict mode

A Different Approach

I built Fabrk with a distinctive terminal aesthetic and modern stack.

The Terminal Design

Sharp corners. Monospace fonts. Command-line feel. 12 theme variations.

Your product will be memorable instead of forgettable.

The Stack

Everything on latest versions:

• Next.js 16 (App Router, React 19)
• TypeScript strict mode (no any types)
• PostgreSQL + Prisma 7
• NextAuth v5
• Tailwind CSS 4

Multi-Provider Payments

Most boilerplates lock you into Stripe. Fabrk includes:

• Stripe
• Polar
• Lemonsqueezy

Switch providers without rewriting payment logic.

What's Included

• 78+ production-ready components
• 48+ page templates
• 12 color themes
• Full authentication flow
• Payment integration with webhooks
• Dashboard with admin panel
• Email templates
• Legal pages (terms, privacy)
• Error pages
