Show HN: A directory of boilerplates to help devs build fast

Hey HN,

I’ve been working on a little side project, and I could really use your help and feedback.
I’m a dev who’s always struggled with starting new projects. You know that feeling when you have a great idea, but then you spend days just setting up the basics? Yeah, that was me. All. The. Time.

To solve this problem (at least for myself), I put together a simple directory of starter kits and boilerplates: https://buildfast.club

It’s pretty basic right now, but here’s what it does:

– Lists about 20+ starter kits I’ve found useful – Details the features, tech stacks, and use cases – Shows some basic stats like monthly visitors – Has a simple upvote and rating system for rankings

I’m not sure if it’s actually helpful to anyone else, but I thought maybe other devs might find it useful too?

I’d really appreciate your thoughts:

> Is this something you’d find helpful? Why or why not?

> What features would make this more useful for you?

> Is the current information (monthly traffic, features, etc.) valuable? What else should I include?

> Is it easy to navigate? (I’m not good at design, so any UI/UX feedback is welcome)

> Are there any great starters or boilerplates I’m missing?

I’m not looking to monetize this – just want to create a helpful resource for the community. Any feedback, criticism, or ideas would be hugely appreciated!

Also, if you know of any awesome starters that should be on the site, please let me know. I’d love to add them!

Thanks for reading this far. You all never fail to provide insightful feedback!
