AppLighter · Full - Full-stack React Native templates your AI agent won't break

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Sanket. I’ve spent the last decade shipping React Native apps (building NativeBase, gluestack, and founding GeekyAnts). With tools like Cursor and Claude Code, *writing code is no longer the bottleneck*. The new bottleneck is the foundation the agent is writing on top of. If you build from scratch, agents hallucinate schemas, leak API keys, and leave you with unmaintainable Tailwind soup. We built AppLighter to fix the foundation. Think of it as a production-grade, hyper-secure codebase meet AI agent synergy. We’ve built 15 production-ready full-stack React Native + Expo templates (Taxi booking, Fitness, E-learning, Food delivery, AI Travel, Period Tracker, and more). But these aren't just boilerplate. Every template is: - Architected for Scale: Built by senior RN engineers—strict typed contracts, semantic file paths, and isolated domain layers. - Agency-Grade Design: Pixel-perfect screens, design tokens, Expo Reanimated motion, and NativeWind (Tailwind v4) with light/dark themes out of the box. - Security-First: Row-Level Security (RLS) on every table, edge functions wrapping every secret, and zero API keys in client bundles. - 100% Agent-Native: Every repo ships with CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, and custom agent skills. When your agent opens an AppLighter repo, it instantly understands the codebase structure. It doesn't waste tokens inventing an architecture; it just extends one that has survived a decade of production React Native. 🛠️ The Tech Stack : - Frontend: Expo SDK 52+, TypeScript, NativeWind, Expo Reanimated. - Backend: Supabase by default (swappable to Drizzle/Neon via a single slash command). - AI Integration: Bring-your-own-key (BYOK) for LLM providers. - Agent Commands: Custom slash commands like /add-screen, /swap-backend, /audit-security, and /ship. 💼 Who is this for? - Solo Devs / Indie Hackers: If you're thinking, "Claude can generate this, why pay?"—the answer is the weeks of plumbing, auth configuration, and debugging you get to skip. Go from idea to App Store in a weekend. - Agencies & Dev Shops: Stop wasting high-value billable hours setting up standard CRUD features, auth, and database architecture for clients. Spin up client MVPs in hours, maximize your margins, and let your team focus on the bespoke features. Happy to answer anything — architecture choices, , how the skills work under the hood, agent comparisons, anything.
