This repository provides a deprecated SaaS template built with the Wasp framework, integrating GPT API, Google Authentication, Tailwind CSS, and Stripe Payments. It's designed as a free, opinionated starting point for developers to rapidly build full-stack applications, leveraging a PERN (Postgres, Express, React, Node) stack with TypeScript.

How It Works

The template utilizes Wasp as a full-stack framework to abstract away boilerplate and configuration. Wasp allows developers to define core features in a main.wasp configuration file, which then generates a React-Express-Prisma application. This approach simplifies integration of features like Google Authentication and email newsletters (via SendGrid), and streamlines payment processing with Stripe's subscription model.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install Wasp: curl -sSL https://get.wasp-lang.dev/installer.sh | sh
• Create new app: wasp new <project-name> -t saas
• Dependencies: Node.js, Postgres (Docker or cloud provider), Stripe CLI (for local webhooks).
• Run locally: wasp start db (if using Docker), wasp db migrate-dev, wasp start.
• Docs: https://wasp-lang.dev/docs
• Demo: https://saas-template-gpt-client.fly.dev/
