Job board code template you can launch in hours

About

Own a job board. Not a subscription.

CodebaseKit is a complete, production-ready job board web application built with React, Node, and PostgreSQL. Buy it once, deploy it yourself, and never pay a monthly platform fee again.

Who this is for

  • Developers who want a fast, solid head start instead of building a job board from scratch

  • Non-technical founders who want a job board without paying $250โ€“$400/month for SaaS platforms

  • Anyone building a niche job board โ€” industry-specific, location-specific, remote-only, whatever your angle is

What's included

  • Full source code (React frontend, Node backend, PostgreSQL database)

  • Employer dashboard โ€” employers post, edit, and manage their own listings without touching your admin panel

  • Job seeker profiles & accounts โ€” candidates build profiles, upload resumes, and track applications

  • In-site AND email applications โ€” let candidates apply directly on your board, or redirect to an external URL. Your call.

  • Admin panel with listing approval โ€” review every job post before it goes live

  • Built-in blog โ€” publish SEO content and build authority in your niche without a separate CMS

  • Stripe integration for job posting payments

  • Customizable, trigger-based email notifications

  • SEO-optimized page structure

  • JWT-based authentication, fully wired in

  • Fully customizable design โ€” colors, fonts, and layout are yours to change

  • Lifetime updates to the codebase

  • 1 year of email support

Why buy instead of subscribing to a SaaS platform?

Job board SaaS platforms charge recurring monthly fees for software you'll never own:

Cancel a SaaS subscription and your board goes dark โ€” your listings, your data, your customizations, gone. CodebaseKit is yours the day you buy it. No recurring fees, no vendor lock-in, no risk of a platform disappearing and taking your business with it.

What you'll need to bring

  • A domain name (not included)

  • Hosting โ€” a small DigitalOcean droplet or similar runs about $10/month

  • A transactional email provider (Resend, Mailchimp, SendGrid, or similar) for automated emails

  • Basic technical comfort following the setup documentation. You don't need to be a professional developer, but you should be comfortable Googling or asking an LLM for help if something doesn't make sense.
