About Novel
Novel is a Next.js SaaS boilerplate published by Novel. Launch your startup from zero to production quickly
Novel is closer to an application framework than a UI starter: it includes an API layer with authenticated, cached and throttled routes, background jobs, feature flags and a separate desktop Manager app for administration. That depth suits long-lived products more than weekend launches.

What to check before choosing Novel
