Boilerworks is live.

Twenty-six production-ready project templates across ten languages and frameworks, available now. Pick a stack, run one command, and start building the thing you were actually hired to build.

pip install boilerworks
boilerworks init

That is it. Answer a few questions about your project. Two minutes later you have a working codebase with CI, Docker, database migrations, structured logging, health checks, test infrastructure, and Terraform — all configured for your stack, all ready to go.

What Is In the Box

The catalogue covers the stacks we reach for most: Django, FastAPI, Rails, Laravel, Go, NestJS, Spring, Elixir/Phoenix, Rust, and Svelte. Full-stack templates pair a backend with a Next.js frontend. Micro templates give you lean standalone services. Every template ships with the same non-negotiable foundation:

• CI/CD pipeline that actually works out of the box — lint, test, build, deploy
• Docker Compose for local development, production-grade Compose for staging
• Terraform for infrastructure — VPC, database, container orchestration, the whole layer
• Structured logging wired up from day one, not added in sprint twelve
• Authentication scaffolding so you are not rebuilding sessions from scratch again
• Test framework configured with fixtures, coverage, and integration test utilities

No TODO comments. No skeleton code. No “configure this yourself” placeholder. A real project foundation.

Why We Built It

We start a lot of projects. Every client engagement at CONFLICT means a new codebase, and every new codebase meant the same first week: auth, CI, Docker, Terraform, logging, testing — the same forty hours of ceremony before any real work could begin.

We stopped doing that. We built the templates we wished existed, refined them across real engagements, and now we are open-sourcing the catalogue so anyone building with these stacks can skip the scaffolding phase entirely.

The scaffolding problem is not about time alone. Projects that rush the foundation pay for it continuously. The missing observability, the brittle deployment, the test suite that was never configured — they compound. Boilerworks bakes in the patterns that prevent those failure modes from ever occurring.

Three Sizes

Templates come in three sizes depending on what you are building:

Full — backend + frontend + ops layer. Appropriate for most product work where you need the complete stack running from day one.

Micro — standalone service with minimal surface area. Right for internal tools, background workers, and API services that do not need a frontend.

Edge — ultra-lean for Cloudflare Workers and similar runtimes. Fast startup, minimal dependencies, built for the edge.

This Is Just the Start

The CLI is the entry point, not the full picture. Future releases will add boilerworks bootstrap — one command that runs Terraform in layers and brings up your entire cloud infrastructure. AWS first, GCP and Azure to follow.

The catalogue will grow. React Native templates are in progress. If your stack is not there yet, watch the repository.

Get Started

The catalogue is at github.com/ConflictHQ/boilerworks. Documentation is at boilerworks.dev. Both are live today.

Stop re-solving auth, CI, and Docker. Pick a stack and ship.
