Ult: Uniting Nest.js + Prisma + tRPC, Next.js + Tailwind for the ultimate streamlined web development.
Have you ever wondered how swiftly you could turn your next project or startup idea into reality? This question has often crossed my mind, especially when initiating a new project. The initial phase typically involves rewriting extensive boilerplate code—authentication, registration, admin panels, etc.—which consumes a significant portion of development time. After repeatedly facing this challenge, I was compelled to devise a bootstrap framework for efficient reuse.
Throughout the years, I embarked on a quest to refine this concept, creating numerous versions of these bootstrap frameworks. The tech landscape constantly evolves, yet each solution seemed like forcing a square peg into a round hole. I believed in a streamlined, more efficient approach to system design, aiming for unparalleled speed and precision. Despite the limitations of existing tools, my vision persisted. That was until I discovered tRPC, which revolutionized my workflow. Integrating Nest.js, Next.js, Prisma, and tRPC transformed the development process, making it exceptionally rapid and efficient, suitable for anything from quick projects to enterprise-level applications. Thus, Ult was conceived.
Welcome to the future of web development with Ult—a harmonious combination of Nest.js, Prisma, and tRPC for the server, alongside Next.js and Tailwind CSS for the client. This integration promises seamless backend-to-frontend connectivity, accelerated development cycles, and a modern UI requiring minimal coding. Ult stands as a comprehensive solution for crafting scalable, high-performance, and aesthetically appealing web applications. Prepare to elevate your projects with unparalleled ease and sophistication.
Requirements
Ensure you have the following dependencies installed on your system:
- Node v18+
- Pnpm
- Docker Compose
- Clone the Ult repository:
git clone https://github.com/jaequery/ult- Change to the project directory:
cd ult- Install the dependencies:
pnpm install- Run Postgres database using Docker that will listen on port 5432:
docker-compose up -d- Create .env for server
cd ./apps/server
cp .env.example .env
Database should work out of the box with the default credentials for local development. But for email, you will need a valid SMTP account, which you can get one for free at brevo.com.
- Run db migration to create the database tables
pnpm db:migrate- Run dev environment
pnpm devThis will start the Next.js server on http://localhost:3000 and the Nest.js on http://localhost:3001.
- Run the db seed to populate the database with initial admin user account. You can find the seed file at ./apps/server/prisma/seed.ts.
pnpm db:seedUse the following command to run tests:
pnpm testContributions are welcome! Here are several ways you can contribute:
