I’m usually allergic to boilerplates. They tend to be bloated, opinionated in all the wrong ways, or just get in the way. But ExtensionFast is the exception. It’s a no-nonsense setup for building Chrome extensions with WXT + React, Stripe, auth, and backend hooks all scaffolded cleanly. No unnecessary abstractions, no overengineering. Just the essentials to get you building and shipping.

Hey Product Hunt! I’m super excited to launch ExtensionFast today 🚀
I’ve always been obsessed with building Chrome extensions. Anytime I had a problem or fun idea, I’d hack together a quick tool to solve it. But every time, I’d start from scratch, rebuild the boilerplate, wire up auth, deal with permissions... it got old fast.
So I built ExtensionFast, a starter kit that makes it easy to go from idea to live extension. It includes auth, payments, a database, and a modern dev setup so you can skip the boring parts and build what matters.
If you’re someone who’s always thinking of extension ideas or looking for a way to ship faster to make money, I made this for you.
Would love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. I’m still new to launching things like this, so any feedback is helpful. Bug reports, suggestions, random ideas.
And if you like it, feel free to leave an upvote or drop a comment. Really appreciate the support 😊
