Taxonomy is a feature-rich Next.js boilerplate built to explore how a modern, full-stack application works using Next.js 13, React 18, and the new App Router. It showcases real-world patterns such as authentication, subscriptions, API routes, dashboards, and documentation - all implemented using the latest Next.js architecture.

This project is ideal for developers who want a production-grade reference, a strong foundation for SaaS products, or a learning resource for building scalable applications with server components.
