About
About Next.js Saas Starter
This comprehensive boilerplate comes fully equipped with essential SaaS features including user authentication, Stripe payment integration, subscription management, and role-based access control (RBAC) with Owner and Member roles. Built on a modern tech stack featuring Next.js 16+, PostgreSQL database, Drizzle ORM for type-safe database queries, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui components, the template includes pre-built pages for marketing landing pages with animated terminal elements, dashboard interfaces with full CRUD operations, and billing management.
Perfect for entrepreneurs and development teams looking to launch SaaS products quickly, this starter eliminates weeks of initial setup by providing a scalable, well-architected foundation that handles authentication flows, payment processing, and database management out of the box, allowing developers to focus on building unique product features rather than reinventing common SaaS infrastructure.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you ship with Next.js Saas Starter.
Next.js SaaS Starter is an official, production-ready template from the Next.js team designed to accelerate the development of software-as-a-service applications. It is an open source template in the shadcn.io collection of 215.
Next.js Saas Starter is made by Nextjs, an independent developer; shadcn.io lists it but did not make it. Nextjs has 1 template in the collection, and the author's page lists them.
The listing tags Next.js Saas Starter with Next.js, React, Tailwind, Drizzle ORM and Full-stack. Those are its categories, not a dependency list: the exact packages and versions are in the repository's package.json.
Yes. The Next.js Saas Starter page embeds its live demo from next-saas-start.vercel.app, and links to it so you can open the real deployment before you clone.
The Next.js Saas Starter listing was last updated on October 8, 2025. That date is the listing's, not the repository's: check the repository's commits for recent activity.
Clone the repository (git clone https://github.com/nextjs/saas-starter), then follow the README. The Next.js Saas Starter page shows the usual steps and a terminal block with the commands to copy.
Install dependencies with npm install or pnpm install, then run npm run dev. The README in the Next.js Saas Starter repository says which package manager and environment variables it needs.
No. Next.js Saas Starter is cloned from its own GitHub repository, so shadcn.io isn't involved. Browsing the page and its live demo need no account either; Pro adds the premium templates, the blocks and the MCP server.
Next.js Saas Starter is tagged Next.js, so it deploys wherever a Next.js app does, such as Vercel, a Node.js server or a container. Its README may add steps for its own services.
The Next.js Saas Starter listing doesn't record a license. Check the LICENSE file in its repository (https://github.com/nextjs/saas-starter), and ask the author if there isn't one.
That depends on Next.js Saas Starter's license in its repository, which shadcn.io does not set. Read the LICENSE file before you use it in a client or paid project, and ask the author if it is unclear.
Attribution follows Next.js Saas Starter's license. Many permissive licenses ask you to keep the copyright notice and license text in your copy; its LICENSE file says exactly what.
No. The Pro license covers shadcn.io's own Pro code, blocks and premium templates. Next.js Saas Starter is the author's project, under the terms in its repository.
Nextjs supports Next.js Saas Starter, through its GitHub repository: read the docs, open an issue or look for discussions. shadcn.io does not maintain it.
Yes. Once you clone it, Next.js Saas Starter is your own code: change the theme, add pages and connect your backend. It uses shadcn/ui, so you can also add more components the same way.
Yes. Components are free with a free account and the blocks are in Pro; both are copied into your project with the shadcn CLI. Check that Next.js Saas Starter uses Tailwind CSS and the shadcn/ui setup (a components.json) before you add them, and pick the base library your project already uses.
Yes, with Pro. The shadcn.io MCP server's search_templates tool finds templates by what they are, and returns each one's repository and live demo, so your editor can set up Next.js Saas Starter for you. Your files stay on your machine.
The collection has 21 other open source Drizzle ORM templates like Next.js Saas Starter, shown at the foot of its page with the ones sharing most categories first. All of them are at /template/category/drizzle-orm.
Nextjs has no other templates in the collection.
Yes. The 14 premium templates (Solaris, Reframe Labs, Spherule and Max and more) are built by shadcn.io and come with every Pro plan, if you want maintained code with a design file.
