Starter packs, not rankings — opinionated toolboxes for a job to be done, drawn entirely from the catalog.
Everything to build and ship a modern web UI
The core toolkit for a frontend developer in 2026: a framework, styling, quality gates, and deployment — proven choices rather than hype.
APIs, databases, auth, and the tools to keep them honest
From designing and testing endpoints to the database GUI and ORM you'll live in — the working set of a backend engineer.
Run, build, and ship with local and hosted AI
Local model runners, LLM app frameworks, vector stores, and workflow builders — the fastest path from idea to AI-powered product.
Containerize, deploy, monitor — keep it running
The self-hosting and operations starter kit: containers, deployment platforms, reverse proxies, and the monitoring stack that catches issues first.
From raw data to dashboards people read
Notebooks, query GUIs, pipeline orchestration, and BI tools — the toolbox of analysts and data engineers.
Small tools that compound into big focus
Terminals, notes, diagrams, and the little utilities experienced developers refuse to work without.
Components, icons, charts and inspiration for beautiful interfaces
The frontend polish stack: headless primitives and component libraries, icon and illustration sources, charting, typography, and galleries to steal taste from.
