Introduction to Seed & Source
Introduction to Seed & Source
Seed & Source is a SaaS stack factory. It gives you production-ready, deployable project templates — pre-wired with auth, payments, CI/CD, and Docker — so you can skip the boilerplate and ship.
What you get
| Component | What it does |
|---|---|
sscli CLI | Generates, configures, and manages your project stack |
| Templates | Python SaaS, Rails API, React client, Static landing |
| License server | Auth + subscription management for your product |
| Wiring layer | Docker Compose orchestration for local development |
| Docs site | This site — guides, references, and runbooks |
Core workflow
- Install
ssclivia pip - Authenticate with your Seed & Source license key
