What is it

TANSHIP Template is a TanStack Start SaaS boilerplate tailored for Cloudflare Workers. It delivers a complete, deployable codebase that includes core SaaS systems already wired in: authentication, payments, database, email, and AI workflows. Built to ship quickly for indie developers and small teams, TANSHIP Template goes beyond a UI skin by providing a production-ready foundation with a perpetual license. It integrates with Cloudflare D1 (Drizzle ORM), R2 storage, Stripe/Creem/PayPal for payments, Resend for bilingual email, and a suite of AI workflows that run on Workers AI with in-app credit metering. The result is a ready-to-customize product surface with robust localization, theming, and content capabilities, designed to help you ship a real SaaS faster.

Features

  • Core SaaS systems wired out of the box
    • Auth: Better Auth with email/password, Google OAuth, email verification, and session management.
    • Payments: One adapter that supports Creem, Stripe, and PayPal with subscriptions, one-time purchases, and webhook-verified status.
    • Database: Drizzle ORM on Cloudflare D1 with migrations and local development workflow.
    • Email: Resend-powered bilingual transactional emails and opt-in flows.
  • AI workflows that actually run
    • Eight AI modules include summarization, translation, tagline generation, text-to-speech, image description, two image-generation views, and image editing.
    • Live workflows run on Cloudflare Workers AI with in-app credit metering; interfaces are designed for easy substitution with your own model provider.
    • A complete credit system handles metering, rate limits, and per-plan quotas, configurable per your ship strategy.
  • Theming and i18n that feel finished
    • 34 theme presets plus a visual customizer; URL-driven EN/ZH routes; bilingual strings for all UI and accessibility labels.
    • Per-user custom themes persist and re-apply on reload; EN/ZH routing via URLs (no locale cookies or browser sniffing).
  • Content system and developer-facing docs
    • Built-in content capabilities with a Changelog page and 36 bilingual guides delivered inside the codebase.
    • Changelog to announce releases; guides cover authentication, payments, database, email, AI, and deployment.
  • Cloudflare-native architecture
    • No Vercel dependency; native deployment at the edge with direct D1 and R2 bindings and a native Workers AI binding.
    • Turnstile-protected forms, service-bound AI interfaces, and a pattern designed to swap in your own providers with minimal changes.
  • Data and storage
    • 18 pre-made tables (users, sessions, subscriptions, orders, newsletter subscriptions, and more) with type-safe queries.
    • User uploads stored in Cloudflare R2 with local development simulators for storage paths.
  • Licensing and delivery
    • Perpetual, one-time purchase license with access to the private repository, source code, migrations, deployment scripts, bilingual docs, and ongoing updates.
    • Focused on core systems without multi-tenancy RBAC or admin panels, ideal for indie developers and small teams.

How to Use

  • Purchase and access
    • Buy TANSHIP Template (one-time) to receive a private repository invitation containing the full source code, migrations, deployment scripts, environment files, bilingual docs, and built-in Changelog and Guides.
  • Setup and configuration
    • Link a GitHub account to access the private repo, configure environment keys (auth providers, payment providers, AI providers), and set PAYMENT_PROVIDER to your chosen gateway (Creem, Stripe, or PayPal).
    • Run migrations locally with Drizzle on D1 and prepare your Cloudflare deployment targets.
    • Replace or extend AI providers by following the module patterns; the eight AI modules are designed for easy provider swap-in with your credentials.
  • Deployment
    • Deploy to Cloudflare Workers at the edge; rely on Cloudflare bindings for D1 (database) and R2 (storage).
    • Verify bilingual content and routing (EN/ZH) via the URL-driven language system; no cookies or browser sniffing needed.
  • What you get at launch
    • A complete codebase with auth, payments, database, email, and AI usage metering already wired.
    • 36 bilingual guides and a changelog to track code evolution and deployments.
  • Optional enhancements
    • Customize theming and i18n further via the visual customizer.
    • Integrate your preferred model provider using the established service boundary and extension points.
    • Add or replace content pages, marketing copy, and SEO metadata using the bilingual translation files.

Pricing

  • TANSHIP Template (Complete source code)
    • One-time purchase: $199
    • Perpetual license to the version purchased; deploy to unlimited environments; no TANSHIP branding in your product.
    • Private repository invitation, source code access, migrations, deployment scripts, environment sync, bilingual docs, built-in Changelog, and Guides.
    • Client projects welcome; updates and support are covered by the sales terms. No included vendor fees (Cloudflare, Resend, or payment provider fees are separate).
  • Start-from-scratch option
    • $0/month to start from scratch and wire up auth, payments, database, and email yourself (significantly longer path to a finished product).
    • No included AI workflows, theming, or bilingual content in this baseline approach; you build from ground up.
  • Focused, enterprise-scale multi-tenant templates are not included; TANSHIP Template is designed for indie developers and small teams who want core systems wired and ready to customize.

Tips

  • Leverage the 34 themes and the visual customizer to quickly preview and tailor branding, ensuring a consistent, production-ready look for your SaaS.
  • Use EN/ZH routing from the URL to deliver a bilingual experience that’s complete, not cosmetic. Translate strings and SEO metadata via translation files for accessibility and discoverability.
  • Take advantage of the built-in AI workflows to demonstrate real behavior on day one: generate taglines, translate text, create voice content, and apply image editing within your app.
  • Swap AI providers by following the modular pattern: replace a provider call inside the module while keeping the UI, crediting, and rendering intact.
  • Test payments with sandbox keys and webhooks before going live; use the per-provider adapters to ensure consistent billing states and user access controls.
  • Use the included Changelog and Guides as your internal documentation hub—this reduces onboarding time for new team members and accelerates product iteration.
