- Hono
Hono is an ultrafast web framework designed for edge computing environments. It's lightweight, supports multiple runtimes including Cloudflare Workers, Deno, and Bun, and provides a familiar Express-like API with excellent TypeScript support.
- Fullstack
A fullstack boilerplate provides a starter application that includes both frontend and backend. It should include database, auth, payments, user roles and other backend services to build a fully featured saas or webapps.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
- Zod
Zod is a TypeScript-first schema declaration and validation library. It allows you to define schemas that can validate data at runtime while providing excellent TypeScript inference, making it perfect for API validation, form validation, and type-safe data handling.
