Deploy and Host Akira-Railway on Railway

Akira-Railway is a SaaS starter kit based on Akira. It ships with authentication (Google, GitHub, email), payment processing, a Postgres database with Drizzle ORM, and transactional email. Built with
Next.js App Router, Bun, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui.

About Hosting Akira-Railway

This template deploys the app service and a Postgres database together. Railway auto-detects Bun from the lockfile and builds accordingly. Drizzle migrations run automatically before each deploy via the pre-deploy command, so
your database schema stays in sync without manual steps. You'll need to provide API keys for Better Auth, Dodo Payments, Resend, and any OAuth providers (Google, GitHub) you want to enable. The app connects to Railway's internal Postgres instance over private networking — no external database configuration required.

Common Use Cases

Launch a new SaaS product without wiring up auth, payments, and email from scratch
Prototype and validate a paid product idea with a working checkout flow
Use as a reference architecture for Next.js + Bun + Drizzle on Railway
