base on Get started quickly with Next.js, Postgres, Stripe, and shadcn/ui. # Next.js SaaS Starter This is a starter template for building a SaaS application using **Next.js** with support for authentication, Stripe integration for payments, and a dashboard for logged-in users. **Demo: [https://next-saas-start.vercel.app/](https://next-saas-start.vercel.app/)** ## Features - Marketing landing page (`/`) with animated Terminal element - Pricing page (`/pricing`) which connects to Stripe Checkout - Dashboard pages with CRUD operations on users/teams - Basic RBAC with Owner and Member roles - Subscription management with Stripe Customer Portal - Email/password authentication with JWTs stored to cookies - Global middleware to protect logged-in routes - Local middleware to protect Server Actions or validate Zod schemas - Activity logging system for any user events ## Tech Stack - **Framework**: [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) - **Database**: [Postgres](https://www.postgresql.org/) - **ORM**: [Drizzle](https://orm.drizzle.team/) - **Payments**: [Stripe](https://stripe.com/) - **UI Library**: [shadcn/ui](https://ui.shadcn.com/) ## Getting Started ```bash git clone https://github.com/nextjs/saas-starter cd saas-starter pnpm install ``` ## Running Locally [Install](https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-cli) and log in to your Stripe account: ```bash stripe login ``` Use the included setup script to create your `.env` file: ```bash pnpm db:setup ``` Run the database migrations and seed the database with a default user and team: ```bash pnpm db:migrate pnpm db:seed ``` This will create the following user and team: - User: `[email protected]` - Password: `admin123` You can also create new users through the `/sign-up` route. Finally, run the Next.js development server: ```bash pnpm dev ``` Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser to see the app in action. You can listen for Stripe webhooks locally through their CLI to handle subscription change events: ```bash stripe listen --forward-to localhost:3000/api/stripe/webhook ``` ## Testing Payments To test Stripe payments, use the following test card details: - Card Number: `4242 4242 4242 4242` - Expiration: Any future date - CVC: Any 3-digit number ## Going to Production When you're ready to deploy your SaaS application to production, follow these steps: ### Set up a production Stripe webhook 1. Go to the Stripe Dashboard and create a new webhook for your production environment. 2. Set the endpoint URL to your production API route (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com/api/stripe/webhook`). 3. Select the events you want to listen for (e.g., `checkout.session.completed`, `customer.subscription.updated`). ### Deploy to Vercel 1. Push your code to a GitHub repository. 2. Connect your repository to [Vercel](https://vercel.com/) and deploy it. 3. Follow the Vercel deployment process, which will guide you through setting up your project. ### Add environment variables In your Vercel project settings (or during deployment), add all the necessary environment variables. Make sure to update the values for the production environment, including: 1. `BASE_URL`: Set this to your production domain. 2. `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY`: Use your Stripe secret key for the production environment. 3. `STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET`: Use the webhook secret from the production webhook you created in step 1. 4. `POSTGRES_URL`: Set this to your production database URL. 5. `AUTH_SECRET`: Set this to a random string. `openssl rand -base64 32` will generate one. ## Other Templates While this template is intentionally minimal and to be used as a learning resource, there are other paid versions in the community which are more full-featured: - https://achromatic.dev - https://shipfa.st - https://makerkit.dev - https://zerotoshipped.com - https://turbostarter.dev ", Assign "at most 3 tags" to the expected json: {"id":"12426","tags":[]} "only from the tags list I provide: []" returns me the "expected json"
