<p>Hey Product Hunt fam! πŸ‘‹</p>

byβ€’

I'm Luqmaam (or Lathithaa on X @Lathithaa_Mdayi), solo indie maker from Cape Town, South Africa πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦, building under Last Dices Pty Ltd.

I got fed up wasting hours (sometimes days) on the same repetitive setup every new project: copying .gitignore, writing READMEs from scratch, debugging Dockerfiles, setting up CI/CD workflows, adding licenses/.env examples... you know the drill.

So I built Repo Forge a dead-simple tool that generates clean, production-ready GitHub repositories in under 2 minutes.

Pick your stack β†’ toggle options (CI/CD, Docker, linting, etc.) β†’ get a structured repo with:

  • Best-practice folder layout

  • Tailored .gitignore + .env.example

  • Professional README template

  • GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow

  • Dockerfile + docker-compose (where it makes sense)

  • MIT license ready to go

Current stacks (free to generate ZIPs):

  • React + Vite + Tailwind + TS

  • Next.js App Router full-stack

  • Node/Express API

  • FastAPI backend

  • React Native mobile

  • AI/ML starters

  • Microservices + Docker

  • Static sites

Free tier: 3 repos/month, no card needed. Pro (coming bigger on Feb 21): unlimited, direct GitHub push, analytics, more stacks.

This is a quiet early launch to gather real feedback before the full push.

What annoys you most about project setup? What stack/feature would make this 10Γ— more useful for you? (Laravel? Go? Flutter? SvelteKit? Advanced testing?) Tried it yet? Drop your thoughts, bugs, wins, or roast it honestly πŸ™

Thanks for hunting & helping a Cape Town dev ship faster! πŸš€
