Connext Boilerplate - Lightweight Next.js + Convex + Clerk starter

Hey everyone 👋 I originally built Bolt Boilerplate, which came packed with integrations and features, and was great for demos, but I found myself stripping out a bunch of stuff every time I started a new project 😅 So I decided to create something leaner: 👉 Connext Boilerplate — a minimal Next.js starter with Clerk authentication and Convex backend already wired up. It’s designed to get you from zero to a working full-stack setup without all the extra weight. Includes: 🔐 Clerk auth (login + protected routes) 💾 Convex database integration ⚙️ Preconfigured providers + middleware 🧱 Simple dashboard to verify setup (Convex, Clerk, API, and env health) Basically: all the boring setup stuff handled; no bloated UI, no opinionated styling. Perfect if you want a clean starting point to build your own stack on top of. 🌀 Repo: https://github.com/bitcraft3r/connext-boilerplate Would love feedback or contributions if you try it out! 🙌
