Stack documentation

Stack is a config-first Next.js framework where access control is enforced on every database operation — so features built by you or your AI agent are secure by construction. Define lists, fields, and access rules once; Stack generates the Prisma schema, TypeScript types, a secured context, and an admin UI.
