Startup Factory (v1.3.9) is a NodeJS framework and CLI tool that bootstraps a full-stack web platform boilerplate in minutes. It integrates NGINX, MongoDB, SASS/JS compilation with PM2 auto-restart, user registration (with email verification via Mailgun), S3 file uploads with image resizing via sharp, async job processing, automatic SSL via Certbot, and a template engine (Nunjucks). Designed primarily for Amazon Linux 2 and AWS, it provides a monorepo-style setup but is not actively maintained (last release in 2021).

default (CLI)
✓ npx startup-factory
✗ npm install -g startup-factory && startup-factory
The package is designed to be run via npx without global install.
init script
✓ require('startup-factory')
✗ const startup = require('startup-factory').init()
The package exports a function that when required runs the setup. No named exports.
H library
✓ const H = require('upperh')
✗ const H = require('startup-factory').H
H is a separate package; startup-factory depends on it but does not re-export it.
