About GlassKit
The story behind why GlassKitexists, who's building it, and how to reach me.
Why GlassKit
Meta's Ray-Ban Display platform launched as the first credible mass-market entry into AR-glasses computing. Suddenly, indie devs had a real platform to build voice- and gaze-first apps for — but the developer experience shipped pretty raw. Meta's starter kit covers AI plugins for Cursor and Claude Code. It doesn't cover the hundred other things you need to ship a real product: auth, payments, AI providers, deployment, docs, design system, billing portal, customer support flow.
I'd shipped a few SaaS products before. The first two weeks of every project are identical — and identically wasted. GlassKitis the boilerplate I wish I had when I started building for the Meta Ray-Ban Display platform. It collapses that two-week wiring sprint to one evening so you can spend your time on the part of the product that's actually yours.
Who's behind it
I'm Jeries — a software developer who's shipped a few products before this one. GlassKit is a solo project: I write every line of code, every doc, and every line of marketing copy. The advantage is consistency. The disadvantage is speed of response, so I keep the support surface small and the docs thorough.

How GlassKit is built
GlassKit is itself built with GlassKit. This site, the docs you're reading, the checkout flow, the email receipts — they all run on the boilerplate. That means every change I ship to customers, I have to live with myself. If it's painful, I fix it before it lands.
The marketing site (this site) and the boilerplate code live in separate private repos. When you buy GlassKit, you receive access to the boilerplate repo — a clean, generic Next.js starter ready to brand with your product. You don't inherit my marketing site, my pricing strategy, or my landing copy. You inherit the parts that took weeks to wire and that no one wants to wire twice.
