DirectoryKit

About DirectoryKit

DirectoryKit is a Next.js-based template for building and self-hosting a directory website. It is built with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Prisma, and includes admin and customer dashboards, post/category management with review and featuring workflows, category-based search and filtering, and community features such as upvoting and bookmarking posts. It supports Google OAuth and magic link authentication.

The product includes monetization features: paid posts through Stripe-based credits for publishing or submitting posts for review, support for ad platforms like Google AdSense, and affiliate link support on posts. Payment processing is handled through Stripe and Lemon Squeezy.

It is offered as a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, with a Lite plan at $79 (discounted to $49) and a Lifetime plan at $135 (discounted to $99) that adds lifetime updates, GitHub repo access, and feature requests. Both plans include documentation, email support, and design based on Tailwind CSS. Refunds are not available, and resale or redistribution of the source code is not permitted. It is intended for individuals or businesses who want to launch their own directory website on their own domain and hosting.
