Building a SaaS? Use ShipFast.
Building a Mobile App? Use Shipnative.
The speed of a web boilerplate, but engineered for the App Store. Don't wrap a website—ship a Native Expo app with RevenueCat, Supabase, and Unistyles.
The Right Tool for the Job
We're being honest. If you want a website, use Marc's ShipFast—it's excellent. If you want a native mobile app, you need Shipnative.
ShipFast
Web SaaS Boilerplate
The fastest way to ship a Next.js SaaS. Perfect for web applications, dashboards, and browser-based products.
Shipnative

The ShipFast for mobile. Ship native iOS, Android & Web apps with App Store-ready payments and AI-optimized architecture.

A detailed look at what each boilerplate brings to the table.
Why “ShipFast for Mobile” isn't just Next.js
Web boilerplates don't understand the App Store. Here's what makes mobile different.
The "App Store" Payment Trap
Why Stripe Checkout gets you rejected
ShipFast uses Stripe Checkout. If you use Stripe Checkout for digital goods in an iOS app, Apple will reject you.
Shipnative comes pre-wired with RevenueCat. We handle the complex receipt validation, entitlements, and native paywalls so you get approved on Day 1.
Styles That Actually Perform
60 FPS, type-safe, no bridge crossing
Web-based Tailwind is great for the browser, but mobile needs something more performant.
Unistyles 3.0 gives you full type-safety, 60FPS animations (no bridge crossing), and dynamic sizing that works perfectly on iPad, iPhone, and Android.
"Vibecoding" & AGENTS.md
AI-optimized from the ground up
Shipnative isn't just code; it's a prompt-engineered system. We include an AGENTS.md and a vibe/ context folder.
You don't just "write code"—you drop our context into Cursor or Claude, and the AI knows exactly how to build your features without breaking the architecture.
Mock Mode: Zero Friction
Build without API keys or internet
Hate setting up Supabase keys just to test a button? ShipFast requires you to configure everything upfront.
Shipnative includes a Mock Mode. Build your entire UI and flow without an internet connection or a single API key. Switch to production when you're ready to launch.
You get the app AND the landing page
ShipFast charges extra for a Next.js bundle. Shipnative includes both from day one—sharing the same TypeScript types.
apps/app - React Native
Full Expo app with auth, payments, analytics, and native widgets. iOS, Android, and Web ready.
apps/web - Next.js
Marketing landing page with Waitlist and Launch modes. SEO optimized. Share types with the app.
