Introduction

What this starter is#

TanStarter SES is a production-oriented SaaS starter built on TanStack Start and Cloudflare Workers. It combines the public architecture and module boundaries documented by TanStarter with a first-class AWS SES mail adapter.

The project is intentionally explicit. Product routes call domain operations. Domain operations call stable provider contracts. Vendor SDKs and wire formats stay inside small adapters.

How to use the documentation#

Start with Quick start, then read Configuration before enabling external providers. The Architecture and Add a provider guides explain the modular design you should preserve when extending the product.
