Inspiration

I've seen many of my frontend friends try to make dynamic web apps without knowing any backend or API knowledge. What they do is they try to use the APIs mentioned in the tutorial they're following but most of them don't work or have rate limitations. So we tried to create a platform where you can quickly create APIs without any backend knowledge.

What it does

we tried to create a platform where you can quickly create APIs without any backend knowledge.

Challenges you ran into

• time : this is a large project so faced the 40hr time issue
• our app is better on local networks. for production we have to open multiple ports or create a lot of reverse proxy configs. Instead of a web app, we could have made a vs code extension but due to limited time and knowledge of making an extension, we failed.
• we haven't added the authentication and authorization. If we want to allow multiple users then for each user we have to create a new reverse proxy but that's not a good solution. We think the optimised solution will be like if we create a new server which will hold all new proxies and we'll create pm2 nodes for each proxy but that would require a lot of experiments. Or we can make this a local area-based application like we mentioned in the vs code extension or windows application.

Anything else?
