Description
Build with AI. Keep your software maintainable. Scalar is an application foundation for AI-assisted development. Instead of starting from an empty repository, you start with a small, production-ready codebase that already handles the fundamentals — authentication, database, migrations, jobs, PWA, AI, and more. Scalar has its focus on simplicity as a foundation for complexity. The stack stays understandable, so your application can grow without software entropy making it harder to maintain.
