Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Breakneck is a laser-focused .NET backend starter kit.
None of the usual complexities and abstractions like ddd or clean architecture.
Just the tools you need to rapidly build and scale your SaaS backend.

Vertical Slice Architecture

Based on FastEndpoints for basically no boilerplate feature development. Focus on Features, not philosophical discussion of where code belongs.

Metered Endpoints

Easily track how much any given user uses your api and charge accordingly. Easily manage usage statically and dynamically.

JWT / ApiKey Auth

Completely customizable entities, stored in your database, easily configurable in every endpoint. Based on Microsoft's Identity package.

Automated Tests

Unit / Integration tests can be easily done thanks to the architecture + TestContainers. Spin up an instance of a real database and your real api to run your tests against.

Streamlines Billing

Stripe integration + webhook handling for easy payments. Create checkout sessions and react to users subscribing, unsubscribing and more.

Jobs Mails Logging Etc.

Ef Core set up. Run background jobs with Hangfire. Create templated Emails with .cshml files. Log every request in a structured way.

Clean & Maintainable Codebase

Minimal abstractions for easier understanding. Reduced cognitive load for developers.

Project Template

Breakneck comes with a project template. You can easily opt out of certain features like auth, billing or examples.

"I built Breakneck to help indie hackers and makers build their startup with a robust backend.
AspNetCore with C#, and generally all statically typed languages, are massively underrated as side project technologies.

I want to show that .NET does not have to be corporate (or corporate priced) and shines in terms of
productivity, ecosystem and developer experience.

The .NET ecosystem is way too focused on clean / onion architecture.
Ditch all the layers, abstractions, domain events and focus on what's actually happening."

I am an engineer who has been doing .net in various roles for 8 years now.
You can check how I think in the Docs or on YouTube.

I also think of myself as a programmer first. Not a marketer or entrepreneur.
You should buy your code base from a coder, not a marketer.
