Differences from Next-js-Boilerplate

Removed features that may feel like advertisements:

• No default database or SQL provider
• No built-in AI assistant
• No system logger by default
• No SaaS integrations or external dashboards

Also removed some features that may be unnecessary for many users:

• Test coverage visualization has been removed
• Does not run tests via GitHub Actions (use commit hooks instead)
• Removed custom knip config (uses zero-config)
• Although react-hook-form is a very popular library, it is not included by default

Recommended Libraries

These libraries are recommended but not included:
