I Built a Marketplace for Developers to Buy Ready-to-Use Source Code

I Built a Marketplace for Developers to Buy Ready-to-Use Source Code I've been building full-stack projects for the past few years, and I kept running into the same problem: Sometimes you want to build a SaaS, dashboard, mobile app, API, or developer tool - but you don't necessarily want to start every project from an empty folder. You might want a solid starting point, a codebase to customize, or simply something real to study. That idea led me to build Projectry. Projectry is a marketplace for developers looking for ready-to-use source code and complete projects that they can learn from, customize, and build on. What’s currently available I started with six projects covering different use cases and technology stacks: 📚 StudyStack An education platform focused on flashcards, spaced repetition, and learning progress. Stack: React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, MongoDB 📊 DevBoard A DevOps dashboard for monitoring deployments, CI runs, services, and incident timelines. Stack: Python, FastAPI, MongoDB, React 📋 TaskForge A project management application with Kanban boards, collaboration, activity feeds, and role-based workspaces. Stack: Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL 📝 PaperTrail An audit logging and compliance tracking system with a review dashboard and tamper-evident storage. Stack: Java, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Docker 📦 ShelfLife An Android inventory and expiry tracking application with barcode scanning and offline capabilities. Stack: Kotlin, Android, FastAPI, PostgreSQL 🔐 CodeVault A developer-focused encrypted snippet and secret vault with versioning, sharing, and an asynchronous audit pipeline. Stack: Java, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Docker, RabbitMQ Why build another source-code marketplace? I didn't want Projectry to be just another collection of generic templates. The goal is to build a broader collection of real-world applications across different areas: - Backend systems - Full-stack applications - Developer tools - DevOps - Education - Mobile applications - Data applications - Frontend projects The catalog also covers technologies such as React, Next.js, TypeScript, Java, Spring Boot, Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker, RabbitMQ, Redis, Android, and more. What's next? The six projects are just the beginning. I'm working on expanding the catalog while keeping the projects varied in both technology and use case. Some of the areas I'm exploring include: - SaaS applications - E-commerce - Developer infrastructure - Data dashboards - CI/CD tooling - APIs and backend systems - Mobile applications - Business applications - Authentication and authorization - Real-time applications I'm also working on better documentation, demos, and developer resources around the projects. The idea is to provide more than just a ZIP file and leave you to figure out the rest. For developers If you're looking for a starting point for a project, want to study how a real application is structured, or need a codebase that you can customize instead of building everything from scratch, check out Projectry: I'm also building the Projectry GitHub organization, where I'll be publishing selected resources and open-source projects: 👉 https://github.com/Projectry-Org I'm still early in the journey, so I'd genuinely like to hear from other developers: What kind of source code would you actually want to buy? A complete SaaS? A backend/API? A mobile app? A dashboard? A developer tool? Something else? I'd love to hear what you'd find useful. Top comments (0)
