What the template is made of
A B2B SaaS starter in three apps: a public website that sells its licences, a multi-tenant workspace dashboard with platform administration, and the NestJS API behind both.
| App | Folder | Port | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public website | website/ | 3030 | Next.js 16: the home page, the licences on the pricing page with their own checkout, documentation, the journal, the changelog, contact and the legal pages |
| Workspace dashboard | dashboard/ | 3031 | Next.js 16: sign-in, sign-up and onboarding; the workspace (overview, projects and their task boards, team and invitations, roles, billing, settings and API keys, activity, the AI assistant); the platform administration (overview, organizations, users, staff, platform roles and settings) |
| API | back-end/ | 8000 | NestJS 12 and TypeORM, on SQLite locally and MySQL by configuration, every route under /api, the public /api/v1 for API keys, live permission updates and an MCP server |
The folder also holds docker-compose.yml, which builds and starts all three with one command, and each app has its own Dockerfile.
What your package contains
The SaaS Website package is the public website on its own.
| App | Folder | Port | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public website | website/ | 3030 | Next.js 16: the home page, the licences on the pricing page with their own checkout, documentation, the journal, the changelog, contact and the legal pages |
Most of the site is its own content. Two parts call the Northstack API: the contact form and the licence checkout. With no API it runs on built-in sample data that answers both in the browser, so you can run it right away. The API and the dashboard are separate packages and are not in this download.
What your package contains
The Workspace Dashboard package is the dashboard on its own.
| App | Folder | Port | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Workspace dashboard | dashboard/ | 3031 | Next.js 16: sign-in, sign-up and onboarding; the workspace (overview, projects and their task boards, team and invitations, roles, billing, settings and API keys, activity, the AI assistant); the platform administration (overview, organizations, users, staff, platform roles and settings) |
It has no data of its own: every screen reads and writes through the Northstack API. Until you point it at one, it runs on built-in sample data in your browser, so every screen works right away. The API and the public website are separate packages and are not in this download.
What your package contains
The Backend API package is the NestJS API on its own, with the database, the sample workspaces and every route the two frontends use.
| App | Folder | Port | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| API | back-end/ | 8000 | NestJS 12 and TypeORM, on SQLite locally and MySQL by configuration, every route under /api, the public /api/v1 for API keys, live permission updates and an MCP server |
The public website and the workspace dashboard are separate packages and are not in this download. Any client can use the API over HTTP.
On Windows, use PowerShell or Git Bash for the commands in these guides.
Both frontends run in English and Arabic, with the Arabic interface laid out right to left, and in a light and a dark theme.
