For each project there is an inane, and quite frankly, insane amount of setup and boiler plate code you must write before you can even start with your app specific code. You have to choose and setup the database, data fetching, data validation, SSR, and CSS framework. That doesn't even include code quality addtions like linting, or Git hooks to keep you from commiting silly mistakes like console.log's and pushing them to your repo.
This starter project is built to help you get your project off the ground as fast as possible. Styling, Authentication, Database, Data Transport, Data Validation and SSR are all installed and/or configured and ready for your app specific modifications. On top of this code quality tools like husky and eslint are configured and all the scripts you need for starting and running your project are ready to go.
