What a Next.js starter needs for an online course business

A Next.js learning management system needs more than a simple website template. The core product needs courses, lessons, progress , quizzes, payments, and memberships. It also needs sign-up, login, and user roles, such as students and admins.

Payments could use Stripe for or one-time purchases. The data setup mentioned is Postgres with an ORM. File storage may need S3, R2, or a similar service.

Video lessons may need Mux or an easy way to connect a video service. An admin and a basic SaaS structure are also part of the expected starting point.
