Create Fast Stack

A polyglot CLI scaffolder for spinning up production-ready full-stack projects in seconds. Pick your backend language, pick your frontend framework — get independent, deployable projects with best practices baked in.

Philosophy

• Polyglot by design: Mix any backend language with any frontend framework.
• Independent projects: Sibling folders with separate git repos, not a monorepo.
• AI-ready from day one: Every generated project includes a stack-specific CLAUDE.md.
• Minimal templates: Zero bloat — each project runs immediately after scaffolding.

Quick Start

# Using bun (recommended)
bunx create-fs-stack@latest

# Using npx
npx create-fs-stack@latest

# Or run from source
git clone https://github.com/FabianLevi/create-fast-stack.git
cd create-fast-stack
bun install
bun run dev

Features

• Backends: Python (FastAPI), Go (Chi), NestJS, Rust (Axum), C# (ASP.NET Core)
• Frontends: React (Vite), Next.js, Angular 19, SvelteKit
• Runtime: Bun or Node.js
• Package Manager: npm, pnpm, or bun
• Addons: Biome, Husky + lint-staged, Claude Skills, MCP servers
• AI tooling: Framework-specific Claude skills bundled per project
• Templates: Handlebars-powered dynamic CLAUDE.md, README.md, and config files

Every backend exposes GET /health with CORS pre-configured. Every frontend fetches and displays the backend status on load.

Supported Stacks

Mix and match — any backend with any frontend.
