Some open-source and free Laravel SaaS Starter Kits

If you’re looking to build a SaaS application using Laravel, you might want to consider using a starter kit. A starter kit can help you kickstart your project and save your precious time.

It usually comes with a lot of features that are common to most SaaS applications such as user authentication, subscription billing, team management, etc. Implementing these features from scratch can be time-consuming and error-prone. So, it’s always a good idea to use a starter kit that already has these features built-in.

Here are some open-source and free Laravel SaaS starter kits I stumbled across that you might find useful. It’s a growing list, so I’ll keep updating it as I find more.

  • Electrik - This starter kit is built on Laravel and enhanced with Livewire, Tailwind CSS, and the custom Electrik Slate UI. It comes with features such as dashboard, user profiles, user and team management, and billing out of the box.

  • Wave by DevDojo - This starter kit is the one I like the most. It comes with all the features you need to build a SaaS application but the best thing about this kit is it has a pretty sleek documentation that guides you through the setup process. Also, it comes with a bunch of themes that you can choose from according to your needs.

  • Larasonic - If you’re a fan of shadcn design language, you might want to check out Larasonic. It’s a Laravel SaaS starter-kit built with Laravel, Vue, and Inertia. It comes with a FilamentPHP-based Admin panel. The unique thing about this starter kit is it comes with Docker support in-built so you can easily set up your development environment or even deploy it to production.

  • MVPable - This starter kit is based on the popular TALL stack (Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel, and Livewire). It comes with built-in features like Stripe checkout integration, user management, application preferences, and a customizable admin panel. Also, since it’s built on DaisyUI, you can use 32 themes to customize the look and feel of your application.

  • Tenancy - It’s not a SaaS starter kit per se. However, it is a set of products and packages that allows you to create a multi-tenant application with Laravel. Ultimately, you can use Tenancy to build a SaaS application. What’s great about this is you can even use it with your existing Laravel application and easily implement SaaS-like features into it. So, definitely worth checking out!
