I've been wanting to get into Elixir but my work has been building web apps using SaaS starter kits that come with billing, account management, social logins, multi-tenant and more out of the box. Are there any SaaS starter kits in Elixir? Examples in other languages include aspnet zero in .net, bullettrain in ruby and laravel spark in php.

example? are you talking about something like Django cookie cutter on the backend and a react or Vue or angular dashboard on the front?

Isn't Django a web framework like Elixir Phoenix that gives you the technical layers to build a web app? These are still great starting points for web apps but the examples[1][2][3] would be the ones I mentioned in my comment that give you the web app plus SaaS functions:

.net - https://aspnetzero.com/

ruby - https://bullettrain.co/

php - https://spark.laravel.com/

Yes, these aren't OSS but are the equivalents for elixir (if any)?

I'm pretty sure there isn't such a thing for Elixir.

And quite possibly there won't be something like it anytime soon, if ever. I get the impression that the Elixir 'ecosystem' is a bit more modular/manual in approach even when you compare Phoenix to Rails, which means, with all else being equal, a bit less of an out-of-the-box experience.

Of course in part this is because there are currently just fewer packages available for Phoenix. But I think it's also inherent to the 'culture'. It might never be as cookie-cutter in what it offers.

(but I'm still relatively new to the Phoenix/Elixir world, so I could be entirely wrong)
