Hey PH 👋 GG here, back with thefrontkit 2.0.
4 months ago, we launched here as "UI kits for developers." We were wrong about who needed this.
The people actually buying weren't devs looking for components. They were founders DMing us, asking,
"Can I just buy the whole app and launch a business with it?"
So we rebuilt the entire product around that question.

Thanks for having us back. 🚀
@greedy_reader The pivot from "components/starter kits" to "complete apps you can rebrand and ship" is spot on. As a solo founder myself (building Advertly), the biggest time sink early on is always rebuilding the same CRUD patterns — invoicing, dashboards, auth flows. The token-driven theming approach is clever because it solves the "it looks like a template" problem that kills most template businesses. One suggestion: a case study section showing real businesses launched using thefrontkit (with revenue numbers if they're willing) would be incredibly compelling. People don't just want to see apps — they want to see proof that the business model works on top of them. Great execution here!

@gaurav_singh91 Thanks, this means a lot coming from a fellow solo founder. You nailed the core tension: the "looks like a template" problem is exactly why most kits don't convert into real businesses, and it's what we obsessed over with the token system. The case study idea is gold. We've got a few early customers shipping on top of the kits right now, and I've been hesitant to push them for numbers too early, but you're right that it's the proof point that actually matters. Going to reach out this week and see who's open to sharing. Best of luck with Advertly. Would love to see it when you launch.
The "AI tools" category in the library is the one I'd want to know more about. Are those pre-built apps that happen to use AI features, or are they more like wrappers around GPT that you'd still need to connect your own API keys and handle rate limits on? Big difference in what "launch-ready" means.
