🎧 A Next.js Starter for Music/Video SaaS — Would You Use It?

While building a personal SaaS app focused on music streaming, I ran into a common issue: there's no starter template for media-heavy SaaS platforms in the Next.js ecosystem.

We have great examples for blogs, e-commerce, and dashboards — but nothing geared toward apps like Spotify, YouTube, Bandcamp, etc.

🚀 What’s the idea?

A starter template (official or community-built) that helps developers quickly build music or video-based SaaS platforms, including:

• Modular layout (admin dashboard + public site)
• SSR-compatible media player
• YouTube/Spotify API integration
• Auth system (for creators and users)
• Stripe billing setup
• Media upload via Cloudinary, Bunny, or UploadThing

---

💡 Why this matters

Streaming SaaS apps always repeat the same core features — authentication, content dashboards, media playback, etc.

Having a purpose-built starter would:

• Save developers a lot of time
• Reduce duplicated effort
• Make Next.js even more attractive for startup and indie devs
