DOCS/PROJECT_STARTERS

Templates & Starters

Production-grade architectural templates configured for instant edge compilation, typed APIs, and zero cold-start latency across the kr0n platform.

STARTERS: 5 VERIFIEDRUNTIME: EDGE / WASM / NODEIMPORT: ONE-CLICK

#Ecosystem Starters

Each template is pre-configured with the kr0n build harness, including AST optimization rules and edge caching headers. You can deploy any of these starters in one click from the Add Service screen or clone them via the CLI.

PRE-TUNED FOR ZERO COLD-STARTS
All official starters feature tree-shaken entry points that conform to kr0n's sub-1.2s build synthesis budget and sub-15ms edge time-to-first-byte (TTFB).
STARTER // BACKEND_COREPRODUCTION_READY

nucleus-engine

High-throughput backend service starter utilizing kr0n's refraction engine. Ideal for event ingestion, high-speed telemetry streams, and lightweight microservices.

Stack: Node.js / Rust FFIBranch: mainBuild Time: ~1.8s
bash
# Deploy nucleus-engine via CLI:
kron init --template=nucleus-engine my-api
cd my-api
kron deploy --prod
STARTER // EDGE_SSREDGE_V2

quantum-web

Next.js 16 SSR web application template featuring Tailwind CSS v4 and streaming server components. Built-in protection against client hydration mismatches and automatic edge cache revalidation.

Stack: Next.js 16 / React 19 / Tailwind 4Branch: edge-v2SSR Latency: < 12ms
bash
# Deploy quantum-web via CLI:
kron init --template=quantum-web web-client
cd web-client
kron deploy
STARTER // WASM_MICROSERVICEWASM_NATIVE

auth-service

WebAssembly (WASM) token verification microservice. Compiles cryptographic token verification into a sub-100KB binary that executes directly inside edge memory without Node.js overhead.

Stack: Rust / WASMBranch: devVerification Time: < 0.4ms
STARTER // DESIGN_SYSTEMUI_KIT

obsidian-design-system

The exact brutalist luxury tech design system powering kr0n. Includes clipped-corner polygons, monochromatic surfaces, technical coordinate headers, and keyboard-accessible HUD components.

Stack: Vanilla CSS / Tailwind 4 / LucideBranch: productionTokens: Monochromatic
STARTER // OBSERVABILITYMONITORING

legacy-dash / watch-wise

Real-time analytics and observability dashboard template. Features time-series charts (24H, 7D, 30D), regional traffic breakdowns, bandwidth gauges, and deployment velocity tracking.
