Overview
create-better-t-stack is an interactive CLI that generates a TypeScript project from selected parts: frontend (React, Next.js, Nuxt, Svelte, Solid, Astro, React Native), backend (Hono, Express, Fastify, Elysia, Convex), tRPC or oRPC, a database with Drizzle, Prisma or Mongoose, and Better Auth or Clerk. It also ships a Claude Code plugin with an MCP server so an assistant can plan and generate a stack.
Who it is for: TypeScript developers starting a new full-stack project
Strengths
- Wide choice of frontends, backends, ORMs and databases; only selected parts are generated
- Addons include Turborepo, Nx, Biome, Tauri, PWA and WXT
- Bundled Claude Code plugin and MCP server can scaffold stacks from a description
- Web Stack Builder generates the CLI command for a chosen stack
Weaknesses
- Scaffolds a project once; README describes no update or migration path
- AI is only an optional example template, not a core feature
- Web deploy targets only Cloudflare Workers
- Billing is not among the listed generated options
What it needs
- TypeScript
- Needs Bun, pnpm or npm, Turso, Neon, Supabase, MongoDB Atlas or Cloudflare D1 (optional DB setup)
