Create a Web API backend in seconds - No coding required

Thomas Hansen - Jun 17 '22 - - Dev Community

If you're an Angular, React, Vue, iPhone, or Android developer, you'll need a backend at some point. Unless you're one of those who knows PHP, Python, or C# to the core, this is obviously a problem for you, especially if you want to focus only on your frontend skills.

We solved the problem for you by allowing you to create a Web API backend wrapping your database in seconds, and we'll even host your backend for free, giving you the opportunity to test our system for 90 days. This allows you to generate a backend in some few seconds, not worrying about hosting it, such that you can focus only on the frontend parts of your problem. 3 clicks and you've got your backend, literally. Below are screenshots of the process.

Then as you've created your backend, you'll need a database. You can either connect to your existing database, or use one of our free and open source databases found in our plugins section. Below is a screenshot of installing the "Chinook" SQLite database into your backend.

At this point all you need to do is to generate a CRUD API wrapping your database.

And literally, you are done! Now you can play around with your newly generated CRUD API using the "Endpoints" menu item.

All in all the process takes about 1 minute before you've got your HTTP Web API, allowing you to focus on the Angular, React, Vue, iPhone, or Android development parts. Let me know in the comments what you think, and please have in mind that we released our hub yesterday and things are a little bit in the BETA stages yet. Below you can see me walking you through the entire process. If you want to try it out for yourself there's a link below where you can create your backend.
