NextToolchain 🛠️

A comprehensive toolkit for Next.js developers that bundles essential CLI tools, React hooks and client side & server side utilities to streamline your workflow.

🌟 Why NextToolchain?

The Current Development Experience is Fragmented 💔

Building modern Next.js applications involves juggling dozens of tools:

• Scattered Utilities: Developers waste time finding, configuring, and maintaining various development tools
• Inconsistent DX: Different projects use different approaches for common tasks like DB management
• Configuration Hell: Hours lost setting up the same tools and scripts for each new project
• Reinventing the Wheel: Teams repeatedly build the same utility components and helper functions

Our Solution 🚀
