SaaS Boilerplate
An open-source, enterprise-grade SaaS boilerplate with Django backend and React frontend.
SaaS Boilerplate by Apptension is an open-source, enterprise-grade starter combining a Django REST backend with a React frontend. It is designed for teams building serious applications that need robust infrastructure from day one.
Why SaaS Boilerplate Suits Enterprise Needs
- Django and React — Python backend with modern React frontend
- AWS Infrastructure — Terraform scripts for production AWS deployment
- Complete Auth — Email/password, social login, 2FA, and session management
- Multi-Tenancy — Organizations with roles, permissions, and invitations
- GraphQL API — Type-safe API with automatic documentation
Production Infrastructure Included
Unlike many boilerplates, SaaS Boilerplate includes production deployment scripts with Terraform for AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, CloudFront). The CI/CD pipeline handles testing, building, and deployment. Monitoring and logging are pre-configured.
The codebase includes Stripe subscriptions, email system, admin dashboard, notifications, and file uploads. Docker Compose enables local development that mirrors production. This is for teams who want to start with architecture that will scale to thousands of users without major rewrites.
