Hey Product Hunt 👋 What inspired me to build StackPatch was pure repetition. Every time I started a new Next.js project, authentication wasn’t hard, it was just the same setup over and over again: NextAuth config, routes, providers, protected pages, environment variables. I didn’t want another hosted service or abstraction. I wanted a way to drop production-ready auth directly into my codebase and fully own it. That’s how StackPatch started. My approach evolved from trying to “simplify auth” to something more honest: patching real, editable files into the project using a CLI. No magic, no runtime dependency just code you can read, modify, or delete. For this launch, I focused on keeping the scope tight: one command, clear output, and a demo that shows exactly what gets added. I’d love feedback from the community: • Does this solve a real pain for you? • What would you want to patch next? Happy to answer any questions 🙂

Congrats on the launch! Love how StackPatch patches battle-tested auth into existing Next.js apps with one command—great DX, zero lock-in, and perfect for production-focused teams.

@zeiki_yu Thanks more frameworks and feature coming soon in this open source

@zeiki_yu congrats Zeiki. How do you handle updates and maintenance?

This is awesome — I love that it just patches real files into the codebase.

No magic, no hidden stuff, just code you actually own.

Quick question: do you plan to support Role-Based Access Control in the future, or is the focus staying purely on authentication for now?

Can’t wait to try this on my next Next.js project

@mrpop Thanks a lot really appreciate that 🙂

The core focus is staying authentication-first and composable.

I don’t want StackPatch to turn into a heavy auth framework.

RBAC is something I’m thinking about as an optional patch rather than a default something you add only if you need it and fully own the code.

Would love to hear how you usually handle roles in your projects.

Looks interesting, I feel like there are a couple good use cases for this. I'm wondering how flexible this is, do you have generic way of defining "patches". Could it also work for other domains and apps that are not Next.js? Is it / could it be combined with AI to automatically patch projects?
