Next.js starter kits from $19 — paid once, kept for life
Hey PH! I'm Akbar, a solo developer.
I built CheapStack because every boilerplate on the market requires Stripe for payments. $249+ for a boilerplate felt too expensive for most indie developers.
So I built the alternative: same Next.js 16 stack, same auth/payments/DB, but with Polar.sh for payments. Starting at $19. All 6 kits for $79. No subscriptions, owned forever.
Happy to answer any questions about the stack or pricing!
