Next.js Competitive Gaming Starter Template (GAMING // NEXT)

A new ShipUI theme is out. If VOW is romantic, CRATE is tactile, and PINBALL is arcade, GAMING is competitive.

GAMING // NEXT is a dark esports infrastructure starter built for ranked matchmaking platforms and competitive gaming tools. Neon magenta and cyan on deep navy, Chakra Petch for display text, Space Grotesk for body copy. Live stats panels, leaderboard tables, scrolling ticker bars, and match cards. It looks like the dashboard behind a ranked queue.
