I was excited for what I thought this was but half of these seems to be just stacks. "Use SvelteKit and Supabase" is not a boilerplate and just linking to Svelte doesn't actually provide any useful information. One just links to the Bun runtime.

It's a good idea and it has promise but need to have a high bar for submissions in order to actually be useful.

Maybe try it out.

It might remove steps to get the boilerplate in front of customers quicker, and iterate quicker than doing things manually.

I like Postgres a lot for many reasons.

Tools like Hasura and Nocodb/supabase/teable have their place though. It can seem a waste of time to build some admin UIs in the beginning but having something like this allows other folks in the business to participate.

I'm not sure what you're suggesting I try out.

Linking me to the bun runtime or the Svelte documentation and saying "here's a boilerplate for you" is not helpful when you're looking for something that you can just run `pnpm i` and start writing business logic, which is what all boilerplates purport to be at the end of the day.

Yes I was hoping to see some actual repos of boilerplate code. Just listing what libraries/languages go into a stack seems to lack usefulness.

It's like if I was looking for some Redux boilerplate and I just get linked to Redux.
