Templates

Start from a real app

Live previews of composed Cronus blocks — themed, scrollable, the same stack install writes. Open a card, then Open Preview for the full site.

bunx create-cronus-app my-app --template saas

Generated products

Default base plus compose: every page is installed blocks stacked in a main. This is the product loop.

Aurora · dark

Gold path: split auth plus forgot-password, Items and Team in a sidebar shell. Catalog demo pages (analytics, billing, settings, welcome, setup wizard, checklist) ship as files, not in the nav — composed from validated blocks, ready to re-theme.

What's inside

  • Split login/signup and forgot-password plus an (app) shell with sidebar nav
  • Live nav: Items and Team. Analytics, billing, and settings stay as files, off the nav
  • Catalog activation files: welcome, setup wizard, and get-started checklist
  • Aurora theme by default — `theme set` re-skins the tree
  • Grow with `cronus-ui add-page`; upgrade keeps local edits
$ bunx create-cronus-app my-app --template saas

Starters

Bundled directories when you want a smaller surface and will add pieces yourself.

Dashboard

Multi-page app shell

Aurora · dark

A real application skeleton: an icon-collapsible sidebar shell with route-aware nav, a KPI + chart + data-table overview, and a settings page of forms.

What's inside

  • AppShell + Sidebar chrome with light/dark toggle
  • Overview: KPI metrics, revenue chart, orders DataTable
  • Settings: profile, workspace & notification forms
  • recharts + @tanstack/react-table patterns included
$ bunx create-cronus-app my-app --template dashboard

Every template prompts for (or accepts) --theme and --mode, bakes your pick into the app, and ships a cronus-ui.json so the registry CLI works from the first commit.

Grow the app after you scaffold

Add a route with cronus-ui add-page, switch presets with theme set, or pull a single primitive with add. Upstream fixes land through upgrade without wiping local edits.
