Ottabase: The Solo Founders' Framework

Ottabase is an open‑source monorepo that lets developers build multi‑tenant SaaS, internal tools, and content platforms on Cloudflare Workers. It bundles core services such as Auth.js v5, a typed ORM (OttaORM), role‑based access control, row‑level security, job queues, cron jobs, WebSocket‑based realtime, and a blog/CMS engine, all wired together for edge‑first execution. The framework also provides UI components, design‑token layouts, brand and layout packages, and utilities for notifications, short links, referrals, comments, and auto‑generated CRUD forms.

The target audience is solo founders and small development teams that want to ship applications quickly without managing separate backend services. By delivering a cohesive stack of 45+ typed packages that run directly on Cloudflare’s edge network, Ottabase removes the need to stitch together disparate libraries and infrastructure, allowing an idea to become a live product in days.

What distinguishes it is the opinionated, edge‑native architecture that owns the entire stack within a single repository, offering built‑in support for authentication, data modeling, tenancy, realtime, and content management while remaining fully open source and forkable.
