NextDevKit
Next.js and OpenNext, deployable to Vercel, Cloudflare or AWS
NextDevKit makes a deployment argument rather than a feature argument, and it is the only kit on this board that does. Built on Next.js with OpenNext, it runs natively on Cloudflare Workers with D1, KV and R2, on AWS with Lambda and RDS, and on Vercel.
Why that matters
Most starter kits assume Vercel and quietly encode that assumption in a dozen places. That is fine until your bill scales faster than your revenue, or a customer requires a specific region or provider, or you simply want to leave. Rewriting deployment after launch is not a weekend. Buying portability at the start costs nothing extra.
What you get
- Auth, payments, email, storage, blog and docs on top of the deployment flexibility
- A landing page and database layer included
- Cloudflare's pricing model as an option, which for edge-heavy workloads is a different economic story than Vercel's
The trade-off
Cloudflare Workers impose real constraints, and code written for Node does not always run there unchanged. The flexibility is genuine, but it comes with a smaller ecosystem of examples.
Data note

Buy it if
You expect to run somewhere other than Vercel, or you want that option kept open.
