But like any SaaS founder, Peter faced the challenge of turning his vision into reality without getting bogged down in repetitive technical setup. Thats where [**Wasps Open SaaS boilerplate**](https://opensaas.sh/) came in.

## The Starting Point: Open SaaS Boilerplate
2828

Peters journey to Open SaaS began with a simple Google search for SaaS boilerplates. "I was looking for something that could save me time," Peter recalls. "I came across a few options—some were free but basic, and [others were paid but didn’t feel worth it](https://docs.opensaas.sh/blog/2024-12-04-open-source-saas-boilerplate-vs-paid/). Then I found Wasp’s Open SaaS boilerplate."

What stood out to Peter wasn’t just that it was free, but that it was **open source**. *"I liked the idea of building on something maintained by a community, not locked behind a paywall*", he says. Intrigued, Peter explored [Wasp](https://wasp-lang.dev/) further and discovered an engaging community that offered exactly what he needed to start building TurboReel.

### Out-of-the-box Stripe integration

Another significant advantage for Peter was how Open SaaS handled third-party integrations. Setting up services like [**Stripe for payments**](https://docs.opensaas.sh/guides/payments-integration/) often requires a lot of effort, but Wasp’s OpenSaaS streamlined the process - you just need to add your API key and you're good to go.
