This is a submission for the Neon Open Source Starter Kit Challenge: Ultimate Starter Kit 🚀
My Kit ⬇
Starfall is a full-stack starter kit aimed at helping developers build full-stack web applications efficiently.
It combines several powerful tools and technologies:
- Next.js: A React framework for building fast, SEO-friendly web applications.
- Tailwind CSS: A utility-first CSS framework that makes creating custom designs straightforward.
- Shadcn/UI: A collection of beautiful UI components that enhance the user experience.
- Aceternity UI: Additional design elements that bring extra visual appeal.
- Neon: A serverless PostgreSQL database, easy to manage and scale.
- Drizzle ORM: Simplifies database interactions with intuitive SQL-like queries.
- Clerk: A secure authentication solution, the thing every secure app has.
- TypeScript: Provides static typing to JavaScript, ensuring fewer bugs and better maintainability.

My Journey 👨💻
I chose this stack because it provides a complete set of tools for modern web development.
Using Next.js and Tailwind CSS makes building fast, responsive apps easy.
Neon and Drizzle ORM simplify database management.
Clerk handles authentication, which is crucial for secure applications.
TypeScript adds extra reliability to the code.
Throughout this process, I learned how to integrate these tools effectively.
It was challenging but rewarding to see everything come together in a single starter kit.
I would like to thank DEV and Neon for organising a challenge like this!
Features 👌
Starfall is packed with features that streamline full-stack web development.
The starter kit includes a complete full-stack to-do-list app with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Shadcn/UI, Aceternity UI, Neon, Drizzle ORM, Clerk, and TypeScript.
These tools work together to help you build fast, secure, and scalable applications quickly.
Challenges Faced 💢
One of the biggest challenges I faced was writing the documentation.
It was tough to organize everything clearly, but I made it through.
On the flip side, building the "extra" components and the admin page was a lot of fun.
The dashboard page was surprisingly quick to put together, taking the least time overall.
Future Plans ☘
The Starfall template is complete on my end.
However, I’m open to continuing its development if there’s enough interest from the community.
With more feedback and contributions, I’d love to see where this project could go.

I’m always open to new ideas and feedback from the community.
