SvelteKit + Hono + Drizzle Starter
SvelteKit, Hono, Bun, PostgreSQL, Drizzle, and oRPC form a split app configuration where the frontend and backend are generated as separate primary parts. Better Fullstack can scaffold this exact compatibility-checked selection.

Compatibility notes

The generated record has 0 graph issues and 0 disabled selected options. This is a compatibility check, not a claim that this exact scaffold received a runtime smoke verification.
- Ui Library is intentionally set to none.

Questions
Is this combination supported?
It passes the repository's compatibility analysis, selected-option checks, stack graph validation, project schema parsing, and virtual generation. That result is described here as compatibility checked.
Does it generate one app or separate parts?
The frontend and backend are generated as separate primary parts. The actual generated output uses a workspace layout.
How can I customize the selection?
Open the generated builder link above. Its query parameters reproduce this selection, and the builder can change compatible options before generating a new command.
