What it is

CLI plus browser stack builder that scaffolds end-to-end typesafe TypeScript projects from parts you choose: Hono or Elysia, tRPC or oRPC, Drizzle or Prisma, Turso, Neon or Convex, Better Auth, Turborepo monorepos and web or native frontends. 5,600+ stars, MIT, actively developed.

Why it earns a slot

The maintained answer to create-t3-app's drift: same typesafe philosophy, current dependencies, and you pick the pieces rather than accept one opinion. Preview a stack in the web builder before generating anything.

Know before you commit

Essentially one maintainer (Aman Varshney) with sponsor backing. The large option matrix means less common combinations are far less battle-tested than the defaults.
