ProductReady v0.1.0 Release Notes 🚀

Initial release - Transform your vibe coding projects into production-ready SaaS applications

Released: 1 Dec 2025

We're excited to announce the v0.1.0 initial release of ProductReady! This foundational release delivers a comprehensive SaaS boilerplate designed to accelerate your journey from prototype to production. Stop reinventing the wheel and start shipping products.

🎯 What is ProductReady?

ProductReady is a full-stack SaaS boilerplate built for developers who want to turn their "vibe coding" experiments into products they can actually sell. We've assembled the best-in-class tools and battle-tested patterns so you can focus on building features, not infrastructure.

Design Philosophy

Production-First: Every component is designed for real-world deployment
Type-Safe End-to-End: Full TypeScript coverage from database to frontend
Developer Experience: Fast iteration with hot reload, type inference, and intelligent tooling
Scalable Architecture: Patterns that grow with your product

✨ Core Features

🔐 Authentication System (Better Auth)

Built on Better Auth, our authentication system provides enterprise-grade security out of the box:

Code Example

// Type-safe auth client with full IntelliSense
import { authClient } from "@/lib/auth/client";

// Sign in with email
await authClient.signIn.email({
  email: "[email protected]",
  password: "secure-password",
});

// OAuth sign in
await authClient.signIn.social({ provider: "google" });

🗄️ Database Layer (Drizzle ORM + PostgreSQL)

Modern database access with full type safety:

Schema Design

Pre-defined schemas for common SaaS patterns:
- spaces - Multi-tenant workspaces
- user-profiles - Extended user data
- site-admins - Platform administration
- posts - Content management
- notifications - User notifications
- agent-* - AI agent infrastructure

Drizzle Features

Type-safe query builder
Automatic migrations with drizzle-kit
Connection pooling ready
Prepared statements for performance

Code Example

// Type-safe database queries
const space = await db.query.spaces.findFirst({
  where: eq(spaces.id, spaceId),
  with: {
    members: true,
    owner: true,
  },
});

🔌 API Architecture (Dual Layer)

ProductReady implements a thoughtful dual-API architecture:

Internal API (tRPC v11)

End-to-end type safety between server and client
Automatic type inference (no code generation)
Batched requests for performance
React Query integration for caching

External API (Hono + OpenAPI)

RESTful API for third-party integrations
Auto-generated OpenAPI documentation
API Key authentication
Rate limiting ready

tRPC Routers

users - User profile management
spaces - Workspace CRUD operations
posts - Content management
notifications - Real-time notification system
attachments - File upload management
agent-* - AI agent operations

🌐 Internationalization (i18n)

First-class multi-language support:

Supported Languages

English (en)
Chinese Simplified (zh)
German (de) - coming soon

i18n Features

Server-side translation loading
Language detection from URL/cookies

Pluralization support

Implementation

// Type-safe translations
const t = await getTranslations("dashboard");
return <h1>{t("welcome")}</h1>;

🏗️ Architecture Patterns

VO/DTO/PO Data Contracts

ProductReady follows strict OOP naming conventions:

Type	Purpose	Example
VO (View Object)	API responses	`SpaceVO`, `UserVO`
DTO (Data Transfer Object)	API inputs	`CreateSpaceDTO`
PO (Persistent Object)	Database records	Prisma/Drizzle types

Multi-Tenant Design

Every resource is scoped to a "Space" (workspace):

// All queries are space-scoped
const posts = await db.query.posts.findMany({
  where: eq(posts.spaceId, ctx.space.id),
});

Error Handling

Consistent error responses across the application:

// tRPC errors with proper HTTP codes
throw new TRPCError({
  code: "NOT_FOUND",
  message: "Space not found",
});
