Comparison

Building from scratch vs using a starter

A simple comparison so you can see what actually changes when you start from a wired starter instead of rebuilding the same auth, layouts, and dashboards from zero.

Written for solo makers and small B2B teams who already ship code and want to see how a starter changes time to first version, risk of never shipping, and where their energy actually goes.

این صفحه به‌صورت خلاصه نشان می‌دهد از نظر زمان، ریسک و تمرکز انرژی چه فرقی دارد بین این‌که همه‌چیز را از صفر بسازی یا از یک استارتر آماده مثل استارترهای Futurnu استفاده کنی.

Building everything from scratch

  • Weeks of work just to get auth, layouts, settings pages, and a basic dashboard into a stable shape.
  • You keep re-deciding folder structure, routing, component patterns, and access control instead of shipping one concrete flow.
  • High risk of getting stuck in 2infrastructure mode3 and never putting a real version in front of paying teams.
  • Harder to reuse the same base for the next product; a lot of decisions stay in your head instead of a repeatable starter.

Starting from a Futurnu starter

  • Auth flow, dashboard shell, basic settings, and example pages already wired; you focus your weeks on one workflow that actually changes something.
  • Folder structure, routing, and component patterns are already decided once, so you can move faster without inventing a new mini-framework.
  • Much lower risk of never launching: the first running version on your own domain can be ready in weeks, not months.
  • Easy to reuse: you can start your next idea from the same starter instead of rebuilding boilerplate again.

Time, risk, and focus

Time to first real version

From scratch: often 2–4 months before something real is on a domain.

With a starter: realistic to have a small but honest version in 4–6 weeks.

Risk of never shipping

From scratch: easy to get stuck in refactors and design system work that nobody pays for.

With a starter: you spend more cycles talking to teams and less time arguing with your own boilerplate.

Where your energy goes

From scratch: auth, layouts, design system, deployment, and internal tools.

With a starter: understanding one niche, wiring real data, and refining one or two flows that matter.

از نظر زمان، ریسک و تمرکز چه فرقی می‌کند؟

وقتی از صفر شروع می‌کنی، معمولاً چند هفته فقط درگیر لاگین، لِی‌اوت، تنظیمات و دیپلوی می‌شوی و نسخهٔ اول محصول روی دامنهٔ واقعی دیر بالا می‌آید. در این حالت، ریسک این‌که هیچ‌وقت نسخهٔ قابل‌استفاده‌ای به دست چند تیم واقعی نرسد بالاست.

با استارتر، همین اسکلت تکراری را از روز اول داری و می‌توانی ۴ تا ۶ هفته انرژی را روی فهمیدن یک نیچ مشخص و زنده‌کردن یک یا دو فلو واقعی بگذاری. ریسک تمام‌نشدن پروژه پایین‌تر می‌آید و سریع‌تر به جایی می‌رسی که بتوانی از چند تیم کوچک بازخورد و پول واقعی بگیری.
