In a world where shipping fast matters more than ever, developers often face a painful tradeoff between speed and maintainability. Most projects start fast and fall apart later due to messy, unscalable code.

That’s why EasyLaunchpad was designed with a modular, plug-and-play architecture — making it simple to add new features, extend existing ones, and still maintain a clean, production-ready codebase.

This blog explores how EasyLaunchpad enables you to build confidently using a scalable .NET architecture, ideal for SaaS builders, indie hackers, and product teams.

🧱 Clean Modular Architecture: The Foundation

At its core, EasyLaunchpad uses .NET Core 8.0 with MVC and follows clean architecture principles:

• Controllers → Services → Repositories

• Full separation between UI, business logic, and data layers

• Modular folders by domain (e.g., Auth, Payments, Email)

Each module is built with extensibility in mind — allowing you to add your custom features without breaking anything that’s already working.

🧩 Real Plug-and-Play Modules

Each core feature — authentication, email, payments, logging, jobs, etc. — is organized as a separate module with its own configuration and responsibilities.

Prebuilt Plug-and-Play Modules:

• Authentication Module — Email/password login, Google OAuth, password reset, CAPTCHA

• Email Module — SMTP with DotLiquid templating + background dispatch via Hangfire

• Payments Module — Stripe & Paddle integration for license and subscription sales

• Admin Panel Module — Built with Razor + Tailwind/DaisyUI for managing users, roles, packages

• Logging Module — Serilog integration with structured log tracking

• Jobs Module — Hangfire-powered task scheduling for retries, email queues, and system tasks

Each module is easy to remove, extend, or override using interfaces and configuration-based toggles.

📁 Folder Structure That Scales with Your App

EasyLaunchpad uses a clear, scalable structure:

• /Modules/ — Core modules like Auth, Payments, Email

• /Core/ — Interfaces, contracts, and shared logic

• /Infrastructure/ — Third-party integrations and service implementations

• /Web/ — Razor-based admin panel, user-facing views

• /Services/ — Business logic orchestrating between modules

This makes it simple to create your own modules.
For example, adding a Blog Module would follow this pattern:

/Modules/Blog/Entities/Post.cs

/Modules/Blog/Services/PostService.cs

/Modules/Blog/Data/BlogDbContext.cs

/Web/Areas/Admin/Controllers/BlogController.cs

🔌 Example: Adding a “Blog” Module in 7 Steps

1. Define Entities — Create Post.cs, Tag.cs, etc.

2. Write Business Logic — Add BlogService.cs for Create/Edit/Delete functions

3. Implement Repositories — Use EF Core under /Infrastructure

4. Build Admin UI — Use Razor pages and Tailwind to list/manage blog posts

5. Wire Up Dependency Injection — Register services in Autofac

6. Register Routes — Add to area routes or navigation

7. Optional Licensing — Restrict blog visibility by package/tier

You now have a full-feature feature — plugged in, tested, and fully separated from the rest of your app.

🧠 Interface-Based Communication

Every EasyLaunchpad module communicates through interfaces, not direct calls.
This means:

• Replace email engine without rewriting logic (via IEmailService)

• Add new payment providers via IPaymentProvider abstraction

• Use IUserContext to inject user info into your modules cleanly

You can build custom modules that plug into the platform without touching the core codebase.

🚦 Scoped Routing, Permissions, and Licensing

Each module comes with:

• Route namespacing to avoid collisions

• Role-based access via role management system

• Optional license-based access control for premium modules

You can easily add conditional logic like:

if (_licenseManager.IsFeatureAllowed(“BlogModule”))

{

// show blog

}

This is powerful for commercial SaaS apps where access depends on the user’s subscription package.

🧪 Easy Testing of New Modules

Modular architecture makes testing a breeze. You can:

• Unit test services independently

• Use mocks for dependencies (like IUserContext)

• Write integration tests for only the new feature

We recommend placing new module tests in /Tests/Modules/<ModuleName>.Tests/.

📦 Selling Features as Packages

Thanks to built-in Packages Management, you can:

• Offer new modules only to certain plans

• Lock/unlock features based on license

• Display or hide UI buttons depending on access level

This makes it simple to commercialize your app — no third-party licensing system required.

⚙️ Dev, Staging, Prod Ready

• All modules support appsettings.json overrides

• Toggle features by environment

• Use separate SMTP keys, payment keys, and log sinks per environment

The architecture is not just modular — it’s battle-tested for multi-environment deployment.

🌍 Web-Ready & API-Ready

You can use Razor views for UI, or expose any module logic as a REST API to integrate with your mobile apps or external services.

Build once, scale everywhere.

🧩 Final Thoughts: One Module Away

With EasyLaunchpad, you’re always just one module away from your next feature — or your next revenue stream.

Whether you’re building an AI dashboard, internal CRM, or SaaS for public users — the modular structure means:

• You save time

• You reduce risk

• You scale cleanly

✅ Plug in.
✅ Customize.
✅ Launch.

That’s how real SaaS development should feel.
