Why OTF Kits Stop at 80% — And Why That's a Feature

The kit that knows when to stop

Most "starter kits" ship a kitchen sink. Auth, billing, RBAC, multi-tenancy, CMS, analytics, email templates, i18n, theming, admin panels — the README reads like a SaaS in miniature. That's a feature on the landing page and a tax on your codebase from week two.

The hard part of a kit isn't what it ships. It's what it leaves out.

OTF deliberately ships the 80% that's the same in every product and stops at the seam where your judgment matters more than ours. That's not laziness. That's the product.
