When inspiration strikes, I use LightningRails to get my projects started as fast as possible without losing motivation due to tedious setup. Regular updates like the integration of LLM features means there is always something new to enjoy!

Hi Hunters!
My name is Dani and I'm finally doing the jump to do my first lunch on Product Hunt.
This project is the result of my conflicting love for Marc Lou's Shipfast Boilerplate and Ruby on Rails. I could not find a boilerplate for Indie Makers on the Rails stack so I built my own.
The process was quite straightforward. I looked at all my projects over the past four years and gathered the most common commits into an easy-to-use Ruby on Rails Boilerplate. Lightning Rails focuses on doing all the repetitive tasks and pre-loads a 100% free tech stack, all so you can build MVPs as fast and cheaply as possible.
With a "git clone lightningrails" you'll have: 🎨 20+ Themes to choose from 🖼️ 25+ pre-designed components to render with one line. 👩💻 Authentication & pages 💸 Stripe payment gateway 📊 Admin dashboards
🤖 Multi-provider LLm integration (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Deepseek) 📱 Fully responsive 🪄 Magic Link Signups & OAuth 📄 SEO tags & legal pages and more...
I have been iterating through the code and its corresponding documentation in the past month thanks to more than 150 users giving valuable feedback.
Checkout https://lightningrails.com and let me know what you think. Your feedback will be crucial as I continue to refine Lightning Rails.

Congrats on the launch! While I’m not a Ruby on Rails dev myself, I can definitely see the value for makers looking to ship fast. Love the focus on helping people get their SaaS ideas off the ground quicker 💪

Thanks for the support @cedric_berry_croguennec !
Used Lightning Rails for my latest project and saved me so much setup time. Totally worth it!
Tank you @maria_barreca !
